Hi Guys,

I just got my green card in the mail and guess what ? My country of birth is... USA

Anyway, I am travelling tomorrow outside of the country, I can't make an InfoPass for a stamp because NY office is crowded and the next available date in second week of november. Maybe i should try a walkin, but the police in front of the huge building in new york won't let me without appointment letter.

Will I have any problem going back in the country at the airport? Should i bring birth certificate ? I mean... how can i be born in the USA that's obviously a mistake from their hand. I checked all my paperworks

Definitely a mistake all right, but I think there may be people born in the US with a GC. The only people that I know that don't get USC at birth are children of foreign diplomats. Of course I'm not sure if there have ever been any, but it's possible.

I know this was a couple of days ago and you may have already traveled, but you shouldn't face issues reentering the country since it was their mistake. The worst that I think may happen is that you will be sent to secondary inspection, they can see that the GC isn't a fake so they should be able to verify you.
