(21,786 posts)Germany doesn't allow dual citizenship. If your boyfriend exists and is a US citizen then he isn't a German citizen and can't "go back" to Germany because he's not a citizen. And if his mother lived in Germany and not the US and his "American stepfather" married her in Germany and died in Germany then she wasn't a dual citizen (which requires residency in the US, acquisition of citizenship by marriage ended in 1922) and you can't "come to the country at 14" and become a citizen almost immediately, because there's a residency requirement (which has existed since forever and was in place under the immigration laws that were in effect in 1976). This story has so many holes and absurdities that it's ridiculous; either it's completely made up, or this "boyfriend" was never a US citizen in the first place.
