When my American cousin gave birth in Africa, her daughter was automatically an American citizen. No... that would make the baby an American citizen... but it won't allow a Jamaican mother to stay in America neccessarily! The infant is an American citizen and usually all that is needed is the official birth certificate so the parent(s) have proof that the infant is indeed theirs. It would be in the best interest of the parents to contact the American Embassy in Kingston at 929-4850 for assistance.

Yes. The normal procedure American citizens follow when they give birth oversees will result in the child being considered a natural born US citizen.

Yes. If at least one genetic parent is an American citizen, then the baby has complete citizenship and the full rights of a baby born to parents who are both American citizens.
