What is the name of your state? Florida
My mother was a permanent resident and I was born in the US. She lived in the US for 30 years and her mother was sick and she returned to her country to visit her and she died. There was a family conflict and she wasn’t able to return within one year and lost her green card. Now she would like to return to the US and live part of the year but still would like to return to her country part of the year.
My question, she divorced my father who still lives in the US and has been naturalized and would like to receive divorced spouse social security benefits. I read all the information I could about qualifying and she could but would need to be naturalized or have a green card which she lost. What should she do, apply for a SB-1 returning resident or is there a way a non-resident can obtain benefits? I do not think she can apply for naturalization because she lost the green card. Any suggestions?
