A child born in Canada to an American mother and a Canadian partner is he an American citizen?

Yes, they can and are. Canada will recognize the child naturally because they were born on Canadian soil, and to a Canadian parent.

Does a child automatically give an illegal immigrant citizenship?

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.


If illegal immigrants have a child born in the US are the parents also citizens of the US?

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.
