ID's and passport????

Question

I am a 16 years old american citizen and i am getting my passport for the first time and i have a problem, i have always lived in Mexico but i'm moving to the U.S in a couple of weeks and i went to get my passport at a mail office on Texas and they told me i should have an american ID which i can't get because i have never been living in the U.S so they ask for the passport and for the passport i need an american ID, so in Mexico there is a U.S consulate and they accept mexican ID's but the problem is that if i'm moving to the U.S i have to write my U.S address and in Mexico you can only write an address from Mexico. I have explain all of this to the people at the passports and to the people at the ID's. So what do you think I should do??? Thank you.

i tried to get my id but they told me i need the passport and for the passport i need an id

and i can't put a mexican address since i'm going to live in the U.S

Answer 1

if your and american citizen, you must have your birth certificate somewhere. With that, you can get a legal ID in the US.

Answer 2

Get a US address. Or apply under your Mexican address using your birth certificate and Mexican ID and wait for your passport, then change your address.

Sorry, it sounds stupid.

Answer 3

who has custody of you? normally you need to apply with one custodial parent since you are a minor.

Answer 4

Stupid isn't it?
