Why is my U.S. Citizenship being questioned?

It was not uncommon in our area for families to have their children through the assistance of midwives. Unfortunately, some midwives have been convicted for falsely registering children in the U.S. Today, the U.S. Department of State is suspicious of children born through a midwife and many passports are being denied.

Also, because of these few lawbreakers, many citizens in our area have come under scrutiny when obtaining or renewing their passports. In some cases, these people have even been at risk of deportation.

Imagine living in the U.S. for your entire life and then being told that you cannot get a U.S. Passport and travel abroad for example because Department of State has determined that you have not proven by a preponderance of the evidence that you were born in Texas.

What should I do if my passport application is denied or revoked?

If this happens, it is essential to obtain a qualified and experienced immigration attorney that can help you. Under the law, you only have five years from the denial of a passport application or revocation of a passport to bring lawsuit in federal court, even if you are a U.S. Citizen.
