There is a very unusual way for someone to become a Lawful Permanent Resident. Here is the scenario: 1) A child is born to a Lawful Permanent resident outside of the U.S. ; 2) This child is brought to the U.S. BEFORE the age of 2; and 3) The child is brought into the U.S. by the Lawful Permanent Resident parent on that parent’s FIRST entry to the U.S. When this happens CBP and the point of entry will declare the child to be a Lawful Permanent Resident.
