I have been told that it might be possible for my wife to receive a U.S. passport. I'm a U.S. citizen but we have no desire to live there. Ecuador is our home.

We just wish she didn't have to apply for a visa every time we want to travel to other countries.Takes allot of time and energy since an Ecuadorian passports only allows travel to South America, Panama and Cuba unless you apply for a visa. We have been married for over 2 years and plan to do allot of travelling around the globe.

Based on your marriage? That's incorrect.

Wont happen bro. You have to move back to the US, get a green card, reside for 3 years before she can even apply for US citizenship.

You don't need to pre-apply for visas to travel to some countries in Central America or the Dominican Republic if traveling on an Ecuadorian passport--this I can tell you from experience.

The previous responders have answered your question.

If you're not interested in living in the US, then at least you save money on US paperwork. Apply for the visas you'll need for the global travel and buen viaje!
