Donald Trump Cancels Automatic Citizenship For Children Of Non-citizens by Oyinsblog(m): 1:31pm On Aug 30, 2019
President Donald Trump made a new policy on automatic citizenship for some children born to US citizens abroad and children of non-citizens born in the US.

Starting Oct. 29, all non-citizen children residing abroad with U.S. citizen parents who are stationed abroad will not be considered for acquiring citizenship.

According to a policy alert released by U.S Citizenship and Immigration Services under the Trump administration on Wednesday, some children born to U.S. citizens stationed abroad as government employees or members of the U.S. military will no longer qualify for automatic American citizenship.

“USCIS no longer considers children of U.S. government employees and U.S. armed forces members residing outside the United States as ‘residing in the United States’ for purposes of acquiring citizenship” under the Immigration and Naturalization Act, the alert states. Effective on Oct. 29, 2019, all non-citizen children residing abroad with U.S. citizen parents who are either employed by the U.S. government or are members of the military stationed abroad “are not considered to be residing in the United States for acquisition of citizenship.”

But in an 11-page “policy alert,” the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) agency said it found the prevailing rules contradictory and at odds with other parts of federal immigration law and State Department procedures.

Beyond that, the rationale for the policy revision remained unclear.

The rule appears to primarily affect the children of naturalized US citizens serving in the armed forces who have not lived in the US for a required period of time, a relatively small number -- estimated to be approximately 100 annually, according to a Defense Department official.

It does not impact anyone born in the United States.

Bloggers learn how to comprehend..

A very welcomed development.

He should also cancel automatic citizenship for children of non American citizens who come to America to give birth just to ensure their children becomes American citizens, especially those coming from Nigeria and West Africa, and he should also make policy to withdraw citizenship of all children of none American citizens born in America by Africans wink

Let's see where corrupt Nigerian leaders like Buhari, Tinubu, Okoroawusa, El Rufai, etc will send their corrupt children to hide when the impending angry Nigerian youth's revolution starts in Nigeria in future to come.
