Here we go about showing (or not showing) allegiance to your country. You must register within 30 days of turning 18. Ted Cruz was born on December 22, 1970. Ted Cruz, a non natural born citizen, born in Canada, turned 18 on December 22, 1988. If he registered on March 24, 1989 he failed to register by the deadline required by law. According to the FOIA Cruz registered on March 24th, 1989.
Via the Selective Service:
[The law requires virtually all male U.S. citizens (regardless of where they live), and male immigrants residing in the U.S. (permanent resident aliens), to register within 30 days of their 18th birthday. Therefore, to be in full compliance with the law, a man turning 18 is required to register during the period of time beginning 30 days before, until 30 days after his 18th birthday...a 60-day window.
Late registrations are accepted, but not once a man reaches age 26. Men who do not register within the 60-day window are technically in violation of the law and should register as soon as possible.]
It appears that Ted Cruz decided not to register for Selective Service as he was require to by law until he wanted to get a Pell grant for college. He learned he could not get a grant, so, more than a year late, he was forced to register.
