jessica04 agony auntShe needs to hire an international lawyer. About 15 yrs ago, the US went through a lot of policy changes regarding citizenship with minors from Canada. It is a huge mess, and the laws today won't apply to her case.

She needs to seek legal counsel and representation if she wants her son back.
