A non citizen can gain status through an American child who is at least 21 years of age. Once the child turns 21, the child can file a petition for the non citizen parent.

If you came to the US and had a child you can be deported, however, they can not deport the child since he was born in the US and is a US citizen because of that.

If both parents are non-citizen American Indians is their child born on American soil automatically a U. S. citizen?
Yes, the child born on U.S. soil, in the air or onboard a U.S. plane becomes an U.S. citizen automatically. It does not, however, give the non-citizen parents a right to stay (with the citizen child) in the U.S. Without proper documentation they will be deported to their homeland. At the age of 18 the child can choose to apply for permanent residency for them (so-called Green Card).
