Lexington, KY asked in Constitutional Law and International Law for Kentucky

Q: How can I become a resident of a state if I have no prior state residency and no domestic home address?

I am a dual EU-US citizen( my mom is American). I was born in the EU and I have never lived in America. I have never had any home address in the US. I moved to America in August 2019 to attend a boarding school in TN, I will soon be attending college in VA. Currently, I am staying with friends in various states. I will have no long term domestic residence other than a college campus for the foreseeable future.

A: You have a lot of questions that need to be answered and you need to seek the advice of an immigration lawyer.

The questions start with: Did you mother register your birth with an embassy or consular office of the U. S. at the time of your birth? Did she ever apply for a passport for you? keep going and going and going!

Good Luck
