Question about turning IFBB pro

[ashilnayak2]

Hi Bros,

Wondering if someone here might have some insight into the conundrum I am in.

I am currently a premanent resident in the US and had hopes of competing to earn my IFBB pro card in the MP division.

Sadly, last year I learned that one of the qualifications was you needed to be a US citizen which I won't be able to qualify for potentially for another 5 years.

My question is, does anyone know of a way I could compete in a show and still be eligible to earn my pro card without needing to be a US citizen? In all honesty I have worked very hard to even get to this point and it was absolutely crushing to find out that I would have to wait potentially 5 years if not more...

Thanks.
