Is it true that if children of a US citizen younger than 18 years travel to the US on I-130 visa’s and then adjust their status that they will – according to the Child Citizenship Act of 2000 be able to apply directly for their American Citizenship? Is there any way to shortcut the adjustment of status part?
 
I assume you are using the term "I-130 visa" to refer to an immigrant visa. In that case, no AOS is needed. Once the child is in the US, they can apply for a US passport.

Thanks so much for the info, I have heard the same from some other people. It will certainly be good not to have to pay for the AOS also. ;)
