Yes you can, however you would not be able to perfect the process of service. The legal process is such, that a person either plaintiff or defendent has the right to answer a summons and complaint. They do however need to get a copy of the summons most of the time it does require a personal service. Some states do allow service of process by certified mail. When you deal with someone that has left the country they are protected by the laws of that country. In my experience in the legal process if a client has a debtor who has moved out of the country due to time and expense they would write it off as a profit and loss write off. J-MT

If you marry a foreign person and you fall short of the required poverty line for sponsorship support can their parents support them financially from back home and that count towards the sponsorship?
The foreign person cannot be sponsored by their parents back home. A US based person needs to be the sponsor. This is because the sponsor basically makes a promise to the government that they will provide for the foreign person financially. If the foreign person ever ends up on government assistance, the government can sue the sponsor for reimbursement.
Is a foreign bank able to sue a non-citizen who borrowed money while in the country but left the country without paying the loan back?
Yes, but, they will have trouble collecting on the judgment. Under the lending laws of most countries, a financial institution may always sue someone to collect monies owed if that borrower has elected not to pay, regardless of the reason for non-payment. Collection, however, will be difficult for the foreign bank if the individual is no longer resident in the country as the remedies available to that bank are not usually valid in other countries. The foreign bank will be more likely to sue and pursue collection if: * The amount of the loan is high, generally greater than $10,000 * The foreign bank has operations in multiple countries * The foreign bank finds a buyer for the debt in the country where the borrower is now resident (sells the debt to a bank that can collect) * If the borrower is a government employee
Can a person from the US sue another person who is a citizen of England and has moved back to England?
You can sue anyone. The court may or may not agree with you and you may or may not be able to EVER collect, even if you win. In legal terms, "Sue", just means to ask. When you "sue" someone, you are just asking the courts to force someone to pay you. If the individual is in England the courts may decide that there is no way they could enforce anything they decide.
