If you adopted your child internationally - GET YOUR CHILD'S CERTIFICATE OF CITIZENSHIP NOW!!!!
From an attorney (and good friend) who wrote a book on international adoptions, and adopted his son from Guatemala, this FB post last night:
"Don't think Trump will stop here. When he figures out Mexicans are not who are crossing the southern border at such high rates, but rather Guatemalans and others from Central American countries facing humanitarian crises, our kids could be next detained trying to prove citizenship.
Friends who adopted internationally. GET YOUR CHILD'S CERTIFICATE OF CITIZENSHIP NOW!!!! And get it in their current legal name!!! Even if your child has a passport - passports expire. Even if you readopted - readoption proves your relationship, not that your child is a US citizen. Waits are more than 6 months. Apply now!!!! Please share by copying and pasting. If you just hit "share" the only folks who can see it are our mutual friends."
