i met my boyfriend 7 months ago online and he’s american and well i really love him, i’m from another country and while i do want to marry him someday i know i have to see him irl first for a few years, so, if i ever marry him (an american) in my country, what happens?? i know i do not get a green card instantly but, like, our marriage gets registered in my country, does it get registered in the u.s too?? i am just curious, thanks!!

    When I became a US citizen in the 80’s, there was no written test. The guy interviewing me asked a few basic questions like what are the three branches of the government? (executive, legislative, and judicial) Which one is the president? (I think they were expecting president, congress, supreme court for #1) and “Who is your US senators?” (I have no idea and asked him if he knew who they were for my home state – I had been in a different state for 3 years to attend university)
