Pretexting is the practice of getting your personal information under false pretenses. Pretexters sell your information to people who may use it to get credit in your name, steal your assets, or to investigate or sue you. Pretexting is against the law.

Children and Citizenship
Each year, many people adopt children from outside the U.S. For information, see our Inter-Country adoptions page and the State Department’s International Adoption page. (More information for U.S. citizens abroad is on the State Department’s website.)
The INA provides information on children and citizenship (including for those adopted abroad) in § 320 and § 322.In 2000, the U.S. Congress passed the Child Citizenship Act, which impacts the INA. The following titles will link you to information about this Act and to other relevant documents.

Persons who became citizens under the previous § 320 or the repealed § 321 are still citizens even though the law that made them citizens is no longer in force. These individuals may apply for Certificates of Citizenship at any time.
