Yes, if Puerto Rico becomes independent, it shouldn't affect your U.S. citizenship status as you are currently residing in the mainland U.S., not Puerto Rico. This is because your citizenship is determined by your birthplace and not your current residence.

Correct, Chelo. As a birthright U.S. citizen, even if Puerto Rico becomes independent, you will not be deported or lose your U.S. citizenship, as long as you continue to reside in the U.S. mainland.
