[WORRIED2 0]

This is my case...

In 1994 when I was 10 years old.. my aunt petitioned me as her son with a fake birth certificate due to I was not recognized by my biological mother..

Everything was fine until the day of my interview in 1999 they told me that was obligatory to have my minor Id to complete the process, so they let the case open and ask my mother (my aunt) to send the documents when were ready..

To get the ID was really imposible because they were using fake documents..

Tow years later my mother recognized me and in 2004 she petitioned me as her son with originals documents..

the USCIS required a DNA test to approve the case and no problems here becasue she is my real mother...

now I got and appointment for next month.. but honestly I can´t sleep thinking about it...

my mom is an American citizen, my category is F1 and I know that I´m not guilty about that wrong decision but I´m really worried about......

I know if the don´t ask.. don´t say...

but just in case what should I do?

Thanks,

Tell the truth! And they probably will ask because they know there was a petition for you under another mother and you will have to explain. You were a minor so you are not legally responsible for what happened (I think you were 15 at the interview...correct? did anything happen to your aunt?) But doing anything but telling the truth will get you in a heap of trouble

What country are you from?

Good luck

Hmm. You were fifteen at the time of the last interview so I don't know if they would charge you with 'material misrepresentation' (which carries a life-time ban from the US) on the previous visa petition.

Lying to the government or on immigration forms is a BAD, bad idea. One that could come to haunt you many years down the line.
