Hello All,
I have some basic questions regarding the citizenship/passport related status of children born in the US to PR parents.
Specifically, my wife and I are from India and we got our GC through my employer about 3 years ago. We carry Indian passports. What is then the current status of our child born last year? i.e.
1. Is the child automatically a US citizen? If so, what needs to be done on this front (passport etc)?
2. If the child does not get a passport now, what is typcially the process of travelling with the child abroad? i.e. do we need to include the child in our passports (both or any one of us), get a US passport for the child
3. Is the child a US or Indian citizen now? And if an Indian citizen, can the child become a US citizen later and if so how?
I guess all these are very basic questions to most of you, but I would appreciate a detailed response to my specific questions. Hopefully, the reponses will also benefit other newbies like me into this immigration maze.
Thank you.
