I just filed for U.S. citizenship using the N-600. I know i am a citizen because my father was naturalized while I was under 18 yrs. However, he and my mother were never married, although both there names are on my birth certificate. Now immigration wants to know if he had legal custody of me . My mother died in Haiti when I was 2 yrs old, but i have no death certificate. My father and I have lived in America since 1993.

Were there any school records that he signed, or that listed him as your contact?

Can you contact Haiti and get the birth certificate? If she died in a hospital, can you obtain hospital records?

Do you have family photos?
