Complicated, written shortest story possible to explain citizenship with me being first born out of Canada
My father was Canadian citizen born to two Canadian citizens. But in his 20s he came to the us. For some reason created fake identity, met and married my mom, got a id because once you get married you have legal document, now you can get a id, with id you can get a military id as my mom was in the military, then he got a ssn issued on the fake name. They divorced, years later he got into legal trouble got deported back to Canada and excited from us for 25 years. In my early 20s we became estranged due to his drug use. The then overdosed, he is sent to hospital and put on life support. Hospital finds my name and phone number in wallet and calls me asks if I’m his daughter, says that if I want to see him alive I better come. I drive there 6 hrs to see him hooked up, in a coma, on life support. I say my peace and go home. 2 days later they call me and ask me to pull life support. Which I do, then I sign papers with crematorium to get my father cremated and release him from hospital to crematorium.
I have already requested hospital record listing im his daughter/next of kin removed life support and took possession of his remain.
I have already done USCIS FOIA (MOST IMPORTANT — MASTER FILE), ICE FOIA (DETENTION RECORDS), CBP FOIA (ENTRY / REMOVAL / BORDER HISTORY), request to the National Archives (NARA), crematorium records, Coroner’s records. Trying to get birth and death records both say I can’t as I’m not executor of will or his spouse.
I have made and been dna matched with my heritage.com to some of my extended family.
I’m in contact with my father’s sister’s (who is alive and in a nursing home) granddaughter. I’m trying to get contact with my aunt, to fill in anything I might be missing. Both of my father’s parents have passed away, his brother has passed away and his last sister I’m not sure if she is alive or dead.
Hope have done all or more then I need to.
But any ideas you can give would be appreciated.
