Hello,
my sister was married to the US citizen. He is the father of her two kids. Now she is divorced and married to another man, who is not a US citizen. Can her kids qualify for the US citizenship and passport?
thank you
 
There are some residency period requirements in the US for a US Citizen to fullfill, but generally if your Nephew/Niece was born after he obtained his Citizenship then the Children are US Citizens.
 
Not only that but she can pursue to get Child Support from the Father if she is not getting it already from different agencies without getting a attorney and when the Children turn 21 they can sponsor your sister for a Green Card.

thank you for your reply.
if you talk about kids' father - he is a US citizen by birth. kids were born in Europe. do you think it's possible to claim citizenship by their father US nationality?

no, she is not getting any support from him - it was a mutual agreement.
