Sheng Wang 07-01-2003, 04:26 PM hi, my wife will have a baby in USA, she is now an F-1 Visa holder. i heard that this Baby will be automatic a citizen of USA, but how about us? in www.immigration.gov, there is no relative topic. thanks for any reply. schenke R J 07-01-2003, 05:01 PM With four exceptions, anyone born on US soil is a US citizen. As parents, you have no automatic "right" to citizenship. The child could petition for you to immigrate. But not until the child is at least 21 years old.

The child will be a US citizen as per the 14th amendment to the US constitution. However, having a US citizen child does *not* give the parents any special immigration benefits. The immigration status of the parents does not change. Once the child turns 21, he or she can sponsor the parents for a Greencard. -Joe Son 07-02-2003, 08:24 AM Joachim Feise <reply@the.newsgroup> wrote in message news:<Pine.LNX.4.53L0.0307011731350.21337@pv105234.reshs g.uci.edu>...

I am holding greencard for about 3 years (I need 2 more years to be us citizen). My wife is holding H1/B1 working visa. We are going to have baby in about 3 months. The problem is her company is going down. She can loose the job anytime. My question is: is there anyway we can apply to get she stays and work permission if she lost the current job? I appreciate any advice. Son |
