Citizenship?

my dad is a us citizen and im actually applying for us citizen i came here when i was 12 and my dad send me back when i was 17 so can i still be a us citizen automatically?

Answer:
A U.S. citizen may petition to bring a child to live and work in the United States permanently, regardless of the child's age or marital status. A lawful permanent resident may only petition for an unmarried child of any age.

If you had children before you became a permanent resident, your children may be eligible to receive following-to-join benefits. This means that you would not have to submit a separate USCIS Form I-130 (Petition for Alien Relative) for your children, and your children will not have to wait any extra time for a visa number to become available. See Application Procedures: Bringing My Children to Live in the U.S. for more information on following-to-join benefits.

Please note that if you are a U.S. citizen, you do not need to file separate visa petitions for the unmarried, minor children of your unmarried child over the age of 21. You also do not need to file separate visa petitions for the spouse or unmarried, minor children of your married child of any age. If you are a legal permanent resident, you do not need to file separate visa petitions for the unmarried, minor children of your unmarried child.
if you were not born in the USA no!
Just stay where you are.
