[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds to me like this could and will be easily resolved if the facts are as stated.

I have a friend--an American who was born in Japan to American parents (Dad was stationed there in military.)  Somehow, the military or embassy failed to register her birth (military hospital) properly.  She and her sister had to go through some kind of citizenship process after they returned.   She is now in her '70's.

But, this story sounds like Dad dropped the ball.  [/quote]

I wonder about this, too. Those born elsewhere and adopted in the USA should get ss#, a passport, and certificate of citizenship. The birth certificate with adopted parents is automatic after court procedure, but the other documents have to be sought out. [/quote]

I remember when a friend who adopted Korean children went to Baltimore to get their naturalization papers.  They were both adopted at around 1 year old, as I recall.  It was after the adoption was finalized.

It sounds like someone dropped the ball on this, but I doubt the woman will be deported if she has documentation of her adoption, etc.  
This story sounds like some information is missing.[/quote]
In the article it mentions the parents got a letter telling them their case was resolved, but it turns out there was some kind of clerical error. [/quote]
