Drop anchor

To have a baby in another country in order to gain citizenship or residency benefits, hasten access to social or government assistance programs, or to facilitate chain migration.

Carlos and his very pregnant wife Maria had to hurry across the U.S. border so that Maria could drop anchor.

Try as they might, the Border Patrol wasn't able to get the pregnant illegal immigrant back to Mexico before she dropped anchor in their truck.
