I don’t know where else to ask this but I am out. My Latina fiancee has been getting derogatory remarks in public. I’m done. We are both hard-working manufacturers and we are looking at Spain since she is already fluent in Spanish and I am actively learning.

Canada has a simple calculator that you can play around with here. Basically, the higher your points the better your chance of getting accepted. Other countries are likely to be similar:

Broadly speaking, if you have a spouse with citizenship in another country, or if you’re young and have an advanced degree in a high-demand field, you have a good chance of emigrating. Other than that, you’re going to have to fight the odds. It will help if you speak another language fluently, for example Quebec has different immigration rules that prioritize fluent French speakers.

She might have a path to citizenship in an ancestral home, if she does you might be able to go with her as you plan to get married.

If I could piggy back onto your question, how could trans and intersex people leave the country without a passport? Asking for myself.

You may wish to take the passport with you, maybe eventually things will change in US, or you will need to reference your citizenship. For instance UK home office refused to change my name without having it changed in my other passport first. Even ongoing travel restrictions to the country involved did not make them vaiver.

So from that perspective it might be useful for you to have the US passport. I have now accepted that every 10 years I gotta pay my birth country tax… In cash… And spend at least 1 day trip to the embassy to get the process started again. Even if I completely disagree with their politics.

You can drive across the border to Mexico without even stopping. No one checks. Just don’t have food or drinks that’s all they seem to stop people for

I don’t think you actually need a passport to seek asylum in another country, it just makes the process smoother. If course you’d need one to use an airport, so you’d need to pick a country you can drive/walk to if you don’t have connections.

Of course that’s for refugee status, which i personally say most Americans should be entitled to even before the new nazi party took over but others countries might not agree yet.
