THIS PERSON COULD BE PETITIONED BY A FAMILY MEMBER, BUT IT WILL TAKE A LONG TIME FOR IT TO PROCESS... THE EASIEST WAY IS BY MARRYING A U.S. CITIZEN AND SUBMITTING APPLICATIONS I-130 AND THEN I-485... FOR MORE INFORMATION CONTACT WWW.USCIS.GOV THANKS AND GOOD LUCK ;)
Yes, the child does acquire US citizenship by the law of land. Just don't forget to get the birth certificate and apply for a US passport for the child.
There no such law that states this. It is a factor that would help the illegal when applying for permanent resident status or even citizenship. The child would be a citizen, but not an illegal parent.
You apply for citizenship.
Yes, they can and are. Canada will recognize the child naturally because they were born on Canadian soil, and to a Canadian parent. The child will also inherit the US Citizenship of the American Parent, although the Parent will have to declare the child to the U.S. Consulate showing their proof of citizenship as well as the child's Canadian birth certificate.
No, only when the child is an adult (18) can they request a green card for the parents. They will be illegal until then, unless they marry a citizen or get an employer to sponsor them.
The answer to your question is simply, No. Put another way, I think what you're asking is:'If someone is here illegally and has or fathers a child on American soil, does that give that illegal parent automatic US citizenship?'If this is a correct reading of the question, the child born on American soil is a natural-born US citizen, automatically, by Constitutional guarantee. The illegal parent or parents receive no change or exception to their official status as illegal aliens.There are recent cases where a parent, sometimes both parents have indeed been extradited. Even though they had young children born in the US. The American born children could stay. The adjudicated parent had to leave the country.(Previous answerIf they were born in the United States, no. If they are from Cuba, no. Otherwise, yes.
No. Having a child in the United States does NOT affect the parent's immigration status. Once the child is 21, that child can petition for the parent to be given a green card, but the mere fact of an illegal having children who are US citizens does not confer any change in immigration status for that illegal alien. Thus, the illegal alien parent can easily be deported. The child may also be forced to leave with the illegal parent, but this depends entirely on the circumstances. Even if the US citizen child does leave with the illegal parent, that does not affect the citizenship of the child.
AnswerI doubt they can apply .. that is fraud and could be punishable by not only deportation, but possibly prison time.
apply for it
No but unethical.
