It seems this Trump's government and policies are all about immigration. No more other achievements.

Donald Trump is simply going crazy. How csn an American's child no longer be allowed to identify with his people? Even the service men who are defending their father land at war fronts? What wrong with Donald Trump. What goes around comes around.

This man and baba go slow are they related? They seem to enjoy seeing people sad.

exactly, i don't know why people are so worked up about it ,maybe its not the law but because its trump or something.

A US parent living outside the US has 18 years to complete the process of naturalisation, thats a long time. Then there is the group of people who feel all they have to do is get on the plane with their big tummies and deliver in the US, they played the system for long and now want to cry wolf.This is something they cant try anywhere else ,but hey, US is the land of the free cos this laws have been in Europe even the UK for long

Non.citizens only need 6 weeks to.make their kids citizens?
He should.have made it 6 years
Yes. For me it won't affect anything. If you can afford to go US to give birth staying extra 6 weeks to obtain citizenship won't be a problem.

In the near future, it will become harder. Nigerians had better be ready to fight to liberate themselves back home.

That is not good idea, two American citizens having their child outside US, their child is supposed to be qualified automatically as US citizen if all evidence shows that they are the real owner of the child.

For foreigners giving birth in US, their child should wait till 18 years to qualify, that is the standard in EU.

Nigeria own is the most difficult one and need to amended since you cannot be a Nigerian unless if your parents or grandparents is a Nigerian.

Naija things are often needlessly costly, cumbersome and corruption-laden to process despite being inherently useless.

Re: Trump Cancels Automatic Citizenship For Children Of US Citizens Born Abroad by bigtt76(f): 7:01am On Aug 31, 2019
Yes so the parents of that child must file for US citizenship through their embassy before child clocks 18 years old. Likewise for non-citizens in the US, they must stay at least 6 weeks before they can file for child's citizenship.



Mynd44:
Basicaly, a child born to American parents in Nigeria is stateless.

Since they don't have US citizenship yet and Nigeria does not give automatic citizenship to people born in Nigeria and their parents or grandparents are not Nigerians

Good move..other developed nations should take a cue too..you can go and access good medical care but come back home and register your children as citizens.. Na all of us must repair this nation..
