Legal Question in Immigration Law in New Jersey

Depending on how long have you lived in the USA, and specifically after age 14, your son may be a US citizen by birth. I understand that you never contacted the US embassy in the country of your son's birth.

What do you mean you moved back to USA after giving birth to a son abroad? Did you leave him abroad, or if you took him to USA (on what passport)?

Please let me know if you would like to schedule a consultation.

I would need more information regarding your particular case before I could comment on it properly.

However, when you say you �moved back to the USA� were you born in the US?

If the answer is yes, then your son would have an automatic right because he has a parent who is a US citizen.

Why did'nt you apply for your son when you first brought him into the country?

If you are a �Nationalized US citizen� then you would have to petition for your son by filing an application with the immigration service. This too you could have done once you became a US citizen.
