    Citizenship in america and england
    I was born in south africa and moved to america when I was 7 and I have lived in america since then.. my parents filed for the papaerwork and everything but our lawyer disappeared with everything.. I'm 18 now and still living in america. I don't want to go back to south africa because its really bad there. I'm trying to find out if I can either become a citizen of america because I've been here for so long and because I got all my education here. Or can I gt my citizenship in england because my grandparents are english on my dads side. :confused:
