Hello Everyone,

I have a long and complecated story that probably won't fit into this message ,so i'll try to shorten it up by making the main point,thnks.

Well,i am very concerned about certain things and have questions.

I am Naturalized American Citizen Has been Naturalized about 3 years ago due to the marriage with my x-husband.

He actually divorced me for the reasons that i am way too high maintnance as he used to sau and according to his words i brought him to financial disaster and he couldn;t handle it anymore.

Though, i used to work and my career was going up during the times i was married to my x-husband.

After the divorce i have gotten some lump sum of money from my x-husband .

I was very upset by getting divorced with him,i didn;t want to change my life,i used to live a very good life durig the time i was married to him and we had lots of fun together,but after the divorce i've got frastruated ,concerned,scared to be alone without a permanent house and more then that o had to manage and take care of my bills which was very stressful for me,because my x-husband used to take care of my bills in the past.

Only probably someone who is from another country may understand what i mean,as i americans who were born in US probably dont understand because they've used to take care of themselves since they were born and they all have relatives or families in the US they can always tlak to in case of the emergency and they can help them.

I am not trying to look helpless or weak person or anything like that ,,,not at all.More then that ia m very strong person and i've accomplished a lot during few years in Us.,but i have lost everything very easily and dont know where to start now.So to continuoe the story

I had to leave the career i was working on in the city where my x-husband and i were residing at ,becuase i felt very upset thinking about the house i used to live in and my x-husband who used to cook dinners for me sometimes,basically the life i used to live or my x-husband and all the stuff togehter.,i just couldnt work anymore .I didn't go to divorce in court ,everything was conducted on the phone ,becuase my x -husband convineced me that if we going to show up in court in person and do these divorce procedure i am not goignt o get any money at all.He said that he is goign to give me certain amount of $ without goign to court so i can leave on pretty well.

I was so naive to listen to what he was saying and didnt go to court mthe judge allowed us to finish the procedure via phone.

I am pissed off at him right now that he lied to meabotu everything ,but from another hand should i be mad at him ?,as maybe i've destoyed my life with my own hands?

So to continuoe the sotry i just wanted to leave so bad,to move to another State where i could start my new life at.

I finally moved to another State and since then was constantly making the wrong decisions .

I went to work for the firm which financially destroyed me. Then at the same time i've met a guy who later on turned out to be avery jealous ,controlling ,possesive and paranoid person.He has got very obssesd with me and stocking me everywhere.In the beginning our reltionship was great but the longer we've dated each other the more he was acting obsessive and controlling.He was physically handsome and proffesional and i fell inlove with him.

Unfortunately he turned out not the guy ive met at first.As i can say people can be a very good actors.

To make my story short ,ive got pregnant from him and i was happy about that part but i had do leave the guy due to his crazy attitude.

He doesent know anything ive changed all the numbers and etc...

I had to come back to the State i used to reside at with my x-husband in order to that guy i used to date not to find me.

Ive stayed 1 more year in that State at my friend;s house and delivered a beautiful baby.

BY the time ive delivered the baby i had to spend the rest of the money i had from the divorce with my x-husband,

So at the end of everything ,i ended up stayin at my friend's house with a newborn baby and applied for a wellfare food stamps and medical insurance.

I am very happy by having a baby and i am goign to do my best to fix my financial situation.

Though currently ive decided to take a break and go back to my home country with my baby for few month where my parents are helping me with the baby and where i can build the future plans about my career and personal life.

I have a return ticket to United States in a few more month.

My main question is do you think my citizenhsip be revoked due to financial crisis ive currently got myself to?

I have a Naturalization certificate and Us Passport and my baby was born in US,

How long can i stay abroad without jeapordizing my Citizenship Status?

I love US ,but i had to coem back to my home country for a few month to take a break and to start everything all over again.

Thank you .

I am confused. What is the difference between US Citizen and US Citizen by naturalization? Does it means that a person who is naturalized have to request US citizenship?

You are either born into citizenship or you undergo a process to become a citizen. The latter is a naturalized citizen.

You cannot loose your citizenship for financial reasons, only if you lied on the citizenship application.

You will not lose your citizenship due to financial hardship. I am sorry you have had such a rough time. As a US citizen you can travel and live abroad without a problem with returning to the US, however, if you live outside of the US you still need to file a tax return with the IRS. That is one of the responsibilities of being a US citizen.

Good luck to you - I hope your 'new life' will bring a quick return to happiness and prosperity.,

Agree with Kathryn41 completely.

You can go to Russia or wherever you want, for however long you want, and not lose your citizenship, just remember to file a tax return etc.

If you are being stalked by the father of your child, you should get a restraining order (or some other legal method) on him, if you don't feel safe...

Good luck, stay safe (F) (F) (F)
