Hello...

I am a Canadian citizen presently residing in the US under a TN-Visa. My minor son was born in Canada and I have always had custody of him. His father is a US citizen who has always lived in the US. We have never married, but paternity was established through the Ohio legal system several years ago. I would like to establish my son's citizenship in the US. I believe that I am supposed to submit the N-600 form. I have most of the necessary supporting documentation already accumulated, but I am concerned about two things:

1) His US citizen father has never had custody of him -- does this mean that I cannot apply for citizenship for him this way?

2) We are here only on a TN-Visa, therefore we are not considered "lawful permanent residents" -- is this a concern?

For what it's worth, I am getting married to a US citizen in October (not my son's father) and will be applying for adjustment of status for myself.

I'm open to any and all suggestions as to how to proceed!

Thank you..
