I just need a clarification to the archived very useful posts.
I and my wife are currently living in Europe with a re-entry permit expiring on Oct. 2008. Our 2nd child was born in Italy in Jan 2007. We are planning to return for good to the US this September.
Because of my job I have been traveling to the US many times before / after the child was born. My wife instead has never returned to the US after giving birth to the baby.
CFR8 211.1 gives good explanation but I want to be extra-sure that I am reading it right: does the fact that I have been going to the US many times affect the possibility for my child to get GC or as long as my wife has never returned that is enough? or in other words, when the child is brought back to the US, should that entry be the first for BOTH parents (in which case I am in trouble), or as long as it is for ONE parent that is enough?
Thank you
LR
