If a tenant breaks a commercial lease how long does the landlord have to sue them?
This is a really general question.... It first assumes that: There is in fact a breach of the lease, the proximate cause of the breach is the Lessee's fault, and that damage occurred to the Lessor as a result of it. The answer may well be affected by local laws, precedent, and the terms of the Lease itself. For such things as nonpayment of rent, for example, a Lease may give the Lessee thirty days to repay before the Lease is in material breach, and specify that Lessee is still responsible for payment for all charges accrued until Lessor gives notice of breach. But the generic answer is, "within a reasonable amount of time," and "reasonable" would be defined by the Court of jurisdiction. Five years after Lessee has walked out the door - probably too long. A year... questionable but supportable. Six months? You're probably OK. Also, are you talking a small claims action, where you'd represent yourself? Or are you talking about hiring a lawyer? Either way, though, this is a question that really should be answered by a competent lawyer in your jurisdiction. You should be able to find an attorney who'd give you an opinion at little (or more likely zero) charge.

Can a landlord ask for citizenship status on rental application?
In the US, they can ask but legal thinking is that they must be very careful about how they use it because we are a litigious society.
You will need to take the tenant to small claims court and get a favorable judgment, then request wage garnishment, you will need to prove that the person will not pay otherwise and that you have tried other avenues like certified mail to reclaim your losses.
The two will probably not happen at the same time, once you get the judgment you can try to get the person to pay, then after all means are exhausted go back to court and request the garnishment. Judges are not quick to do it and you will need to do quite a bit of work, most people write off the loss and keep the deposits as compensation.
As a property owner the loss is deductible for taxes. sometimes more valueable than the rent itself.
