Ok, my wife is from Latvia and we are just curious about her mother. Her mother does not have citizenship of any country... she is allowed to stay in Latvia and it's my understanding that she is able to obtain Russian citizenship if she decides to do so. How will this affect a petition for her if we decide to do this after my wife is naturalized, or becomes a USC? Are there any other loopholes for obtaining permission to stay in the US for individuals with no citizenship elsewhere?

Does her mom have a passport? If no passport then no traveling to USA and no visa. Curious how you would obtain one without being a citizen of any country. It might be in her best intrest to become a citizen and apply for a passport before you try to have her come over to america. - just the way i understand it tho! I could be wrong.

It seems as if Latavia issues a non-citizen passport for travel in the EU. According to the Latavian consulate web site when asked about non-citizens traveling to the US the following was said.

"Latvian non-citizens are always required to obtain a U.S. visa for any purpose of travel."

So it appears that Latavian non-citizens use their Violet colored "passport" to enter the United States if the US embassy issues them a visa
