Melania Trump shares legal letter on immigration status on Twitter
Melania Trump has finally spoken out about her immigration status.
Throughout the course of the 2016 presidential campaign, Trump's husband -- Republican candidate Donald Trump -- has made his negative stance on immigration crystal clear and announced plans to build a wall to help prevent undocumented non-citizens from entering the country.
As a result, a great deal of speculation surrounding Melania Trump's own immigration history has emerged.
On Wednesday morning, Trump -- who was born in Slovenia --presented a letter on Twitter from her immigration attorney, which confirmed that she followed the correct procedures to enter the United States.

She stated that any reports claiming she did not fully comply with United States immigration laws at that time were false, and explained that she officially became a citizen in 2006.

Despite her statement, the questions about the validity of Trump's immigration procedures did not cease.
On Wednesday morning, the former model addressed the claims by releasing a letter from Michael J. Wildes, the Managing Partner of the Law Offices of Wildes & Weinberg P.C.
The letter presents a history of Trump's visa statuses, dismisses claims that suggested she worked illegally as a model in America in 1995 and confirms she obtained legal U.S. work visas from 1996 to 2001. In 2001, the letter states, she became a permanent resident of the United States by obtaining a green card.
Wildes also addressed the false claims that Trump worked as an escort in the 1990s, which she sued The Daily Mailfor printing earlier this month.

Wildes ended the letter by writing, " … Mrs. Trump did not receive her green card through marriage. Rather, in 2000, Mrs. Trump self-sponsored herself for a green card as a model of 'extraordinary ability,' and on March 19, 2001 she was admitted to the United States as a lawful permanent resident."
Case closed.
