    Can an Adult Permanent Resident Remain in the U.S. After Moving Out of Parents' Home
    Hi everyone, ill make this quick and short.

    I am 21 years old. I moved to this country 4 years ago.

    My parents have been living here since 94' and they already have their greencard and citizenship.

    I got my greencard in 2008. I will get my citizenship in 2013.

    I had a problem with my family and moved out of their house.

    If my relation with my parents come to a sad conclusion, would i be risking my citizenship? can my parents cancel my green card?

    I have to make some very important decisions in a small amount of time. Please, any advice and knowledge is apprecciated.

    Any questions at all, feel free.

    Thank You.

    No. In the United States, the legal age of majority - that is, the age at which you are considered by law to be an adult - is 18. Your parents do not have the authority to have your green card revoked.

    Thank you for your reply.

    So i do not need anything from my parents from this point forward to continue my transition into a citizen smoothly, correct? nor can they interfere with my naturalization process

    They can't get in the way, no.
