I need Don Francisco address or e-mail to tell him my story about obtaining my US passport ?

March 30th, 2010 1 comment

I was born in Mexicali, Baja California Mex. in 47 but got my US citizenship through my father. In 1967 I received a US ID from the American Consulate here in Mexicali. Now they no long make them so I just pass the border saying US CITIZEN have been doing so for the past 43 years of have been living here in Mexicali and cross to Calexico, Ca. Where I use to work, took care of my parents till their death. Now that I need a US PASSPORT the American Consulate in Tijuana says I have to prove my dad’s citizenship through my grandmother who was born in the 1880’s and died in the 1950’s. I never new her but I found out while searching Ancestry my dad’s WW1 DRAFT REGISTRATION CARD OF 1918 where it has that my grandmother was in the STATE HOSPITAL PHOENIX, MARICOPA ARIZONA IN 1918. I called the hospital but all those records are long gone. Mr Wallace there told me to check with the VITAL RECORDS in PHOENIX to find her birth and death certificate. It’s been 6 months and so far they have found out nothing yet. I’m am very worried because a custom officer said my ID from the American Consulate will not be accepted in January 2009. I don’t know what to do next year I’ll be able to get my social security check but in november on my 62nd birthday what will happen with the money I worked hard for my old age.??????
Please a friend told me Don Francisco knows a Lawyer that could inform me what to do. They say (US CUSTOM) "That it’s a privilege to get a passport to cross the border". But I think "It’s more an HONOR being a US CITIZEN and having a US passport to prove it:"I am 61 year old and I am fighting for my right’s as a citizen which I believe to be. So please if I may have Don Francisco’s address or E-mail I will greatly appreciate it. Sincerely yours, Cecilia Cisneros Davis

You have the necessary US ID issued by an embassy to prove your citizenship. Nothing is more acceptable than that. You have worked and paid taxes (I presume) through all those years. You have an ssn card. What else do they need? Get an immigration lawyer to help you out.
