Andy9o8 3 #52 June 4, 2010 QuoteIf, I'm not mistaken, the mother still be deported, take the child with her and may apply for citizenship later. Just because the child is born here doesn't automatically make the mother a citizen. The child being a U.S. citizen does help the mother's case. FWIW - and "custody of minor" issues aside (which disappear anyway once the kid is 18), the US-born kid, being a US citizen, would have the right to live in the US. At least I think so.

masterrig 1 #53 June 4, 2010 True. The mother would more than likely be deported. The minor child would be issued a U.S. passport unless other arrangements for the child were made to stay in the U.S.. The mother could apply for an immigrant visa. That's my understanding of the law. Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It should be that way.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
