Immigration officials in the United States are investigating how a runaway teenager was deported to Colombia despite having no Colombian ID and speaking no Spanish.
Jakadrien Turner, 14, ran away from her home in Texas two years ago.
When arrested for theft in April 2011, she gave Houston police the name of a Colombian woman and maintained this identity through a court case and the deportation process.
On Thursday Bogota said the US embassy had submitted documents to allow for her return. The BBC reports she is to be released to US officials on Friday.
Ms Turner's grandmother, Lorene Turner, contacted Dallas police when she found Jakadrien's Facebook page under an assumed name.
She ran away from home in 2010 and was reported missing on 19 November that year. Her information was on record with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.
Jakadrien was arrested by Houston police in April 2011 on the charge that eventually led to her deportation after she claimed she was called Tika Lanay Cortez, the name of a Colombian woman born in 1990.
''They didn't do their work,'' Ms Turner told a TV station in Texas.
''How do you deport a teenager and send her to Colombia without a passport, without anything?''
