K1 waiting for removal of conditions

[Jenna24 0]

Hello, my husband arrived on a k1 fiancé visa, we got married and are now in the process of waiting for the removal of conditions from his green card so he can get a 10 year green card since September 2022. The process is taking a little

Longer then expected and since we qualified to apply for citizenship we did that too. But recently, my husband found out that he has part of an inheritance home in his home country and his family wants him to give up his part. Should we wait until he gets his status finalized before doing anything or will going through with the process of giving up his inheritance not affect  his immigration process? Thank you in advance for your advice!

No effect.

I agree, this has nothing to do with immigration processes.

I wouldn't give up the inheritance. 

 

And his inheritance has nothing to do with US immigration.

No impact on his immigration. Idk if this is a question about travel? He is still a green card holder, even as he waits for ROC...he can travel to his home country to receive the inheritance etc.

It may be that after becoming a US citizen, the OP's husband may lose citizenship in their country (depending on laws of that country). And the laws of the country may not allow ownership by foreign citizens. If that's the case:

 

Inherit => Sell => Become a US citizen

This exact thing indeed happened to someone I know (unable to collect inheritance in a country that does not allow dual citizenship after becoming a US citizen). Hopefully @Jenna24 can let us know the country so we can know whether that applies.
