  1. It would probably be very difficult, based on your status as a non-citizen. There would be citizenship issues with the child.

    *Would he be a citizen of the US, or of Italy?
    *Would Italian law come into play, since you are still an Italian citizen?
    *What if you go back to Italy? What happens to the child?

    Where are you in the process of getting your citizenship?
    What is your husband’s citizenship?
