Hello everyone,
I need an advice about something.
DISCLAMIER: I WILL NOT DISCLOSE MY COUNTRY, AGE, OR NAME IN THIS THREAD. HOWEVER IT MAY BE HINTED.
Okay, so I live at a country in which military service is mandatory, for those who don't know it means that a citizen MUST go to the military (Unless the military approves that they won't). I have a sister (father's first marriage) who lives in the US, we are really close. We used to fly overseas to visit each other all the time. I always wanted to move to the states, it was my dream since I was a child, but my father got remarried here (where I currently live) and unlike my sister (whose mother moved to the US) I don't have an American citizenship.
This year my sister became 21, meaning that she legally counts an adult. Reaching that age allows you to request relatives to come live with you in your state, you just have to fill some forms and wait for approval.
Now there's the tough part, I owe duties to my country, I must serve otherwise be imprisoned for god knows how many years.
My sister is very supportive towards the idea of me mother to the US but worried it will ruin my life there as I'll be considered a runaway prisoner.
Serving at the military means that I won't be able to study in university/college until I'm about 22 years of age. And I'm really interested in doing so and beginning studying by the age of 18.
My plans are to move to the US, serve at the military there so they'll pay for my tuition and continue working for them as long as they ask me to. So please keep that in mind.
What should I do?
If not enough information was given feel free to ask me questions, this account will be active until 8/30/19.
