If a male is over 30 years of age, he doesn't have to register with the Selective Service.

Tha law says:

**If you are a man ages 18 through 25 and living in the U.S., then you must register with Selective Service. It�s the law.**

This law does not apply to you as you were over 25 when you came. Don not sweat over it, just say you did not register.
