My friend called me before i even start CBRA process and he told me at his oath ceremony the IO said everybody has a child 10 years or younger is atumatilly a USC even if he lives in overseas and this is what encourges me to go to the embassy. I remebered when i called the state department the rep told certain cercumstances applies. Tomorrow i will know from the consular section

Either your friend misinterpreted what the IO said or the IO had been smoking some crack in the morning ;) There is (to my knowledge) no law that applies to children under 10 to grant them automatic derivative citizenship. In general there is no law that applies to 10 year old and younger. The child citizenship act cutoff age is 18.

Here are some other charts on children born abroad:

I'll refer to the US State Department website again:

That official governmental website, and the law described therein, do not support your version of the events. It follows then that:

1. A mistake was made
2. You're not telling us the entire story
3. You're outright lying.


I won't accuse you of outright lying, but since you don't want to share all the details (and it is a right you have, obviously), then either 1 or 2 is true. I'd be surprised if 1 was true, but it could happen. I'm betting that 2 is true, but you just want to make yourself look "cool" and are omitting some details here.

Really? Because your first and subsequent posts made fun of people here in a condescending "you guys don't know anything, I beat the World" way. In any case, good luck to you, and for next time, whenever there's a discrepancy between the you and the law, the law will prevail.
 
I think I can see where the mistake could be. It seems the form to request CRBA doesn't ask for date of naturalization. It basically is happy with seeing the US passport of the parent.

Perhaps they see more cases of born US citizens instead of naturalized citizens. Anyway, I still think a mistake was done in this case, at least with the information given so far. I would be really interested in finding out what are the special circumstances that the consulate employee mentioned in order to issue the CRBA.
