Which one will consider European citizen or India Origin for US GC process.

[Sbodakunta]

Hi All,

I am Indian orgin and living in Holland ( Dutch,netherlands) since last 5 years. I am planning to take Dutch Citizenship in next few months. That means I am going to lose my Indian citizenship and hold Dutch Citizenship ( passport)

I have plans to travel to US towards end of this year. I heard in US, people from different Countries ex; Europe, GC process will be very fast ( 1 year).

After I get Dutch Citizenship, If I travel to US on work, Am I going to be consider as European Citizen or Indian Orgin for GC Process?

Is it true to get the GC faster if i consider as European citizen, If so what are the options I have

Please advise.

Cheers,

Suri.

The GC process is based on birth and not Citizenship. If suppose you were born in India and even though you are a EU Citizen, GC will be based on the country of birth - India.

The GC is ALWAYS based on country of birth.
