I have been told that I may qualify to apply for citizenship in Jamaica by being married to a Jamaican wife. Is this true or will I have to live as a Permanent Resident for several years first? Also, I was told to get a "form R1" but neither the embassy or the NYC Consulate seems to have one. Anybody know where I can get it?

Have you been to jamaica? I don't believe you'll ever end up in jamaica. she probably just told you that so that you wouldn't suspect she married you only to get into this country. that woman didn't go through all the trouble of coming here only to go back. they kill themselves to come here eventhough that is their home. if it was a wonderful place to live they never would have left.
the gov't makes it hard for U.S. citizens to be with people from jamaica for a reason. the reason is that they KNOW that 99.9% of the marriages they make with americans are for U.S. citizenship or MONEY. that is why they won't help you break your neck.
if you are smart you will keep your money separate, not have any children, put an ad in the paper announcing that you will be responsible for your debts and signatures only and don't co-sign any debt with her, and watch what you eat.
Be careful and don't end up like Lauryn Hill.

In the United States, certain Afro-Caribbean and Latin American traditions, including
Santeria, Palo, voodoo, and Espiritismo, incorporate the use of elemental mercury. Uses include sprinkling mercury on the floor of a home or car, burning it in a
candle, and mixing it with perfume. Metallic mercury is available at almost all of the 15 botanicas visited in New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, but botanica personnel often deny having mercury for sale when approached by outsiders to these religions.
People with chronic mercury poisoning often also have wide mood swings, becoming irritable, frightened, depressed, or excited very quickly for no apparent reason. Such people may become extremely upset at any criticism, lose all self-confidence, and become apathetic. Hallucinations, memory loss, and inability to concentrate can occur.
