Hello, I have a huge problem. I am currently in the US on a student F1 visa. My father is a born
us citizen who left the us when he was 3 years old

old and concevied me out of wedlock at the age of 18 with my swedish mother. I am 23 years old right
now. He doesnt have the required 5 years of physical presence to directly transfer his citizenship
to me. If i was to be under 18 i could get i tthrough my grandfather who has the presence, but at
the time we were not aware of the procedure. I need a green card or citizenship, i dont want to
wait 7 years for the petition for a green card to go through when if he just had petionied me before
i was 21 i would have gotten it within a few months. We were just not aware of the procedure, he
has always been sure that there would be not problem for us obtaining citizenship or atleast a green
card. Is there anyway i can get citizenship or green card wihtout waiting the 6-7 years it takes
to get a green card. If we were aware of this we would of course have
