Subject: Child born outside of the US. Posted on: Sun, 14 Jun 2009 19:03:00 +0000 (UTC)

Facts:

I moved to the USA in 1990 on a F1 visa (Student)
I studied until 1997
I obtained my green card on 1999
I obtained my citizenship on 2007
I moved out of the USA on 2008
My child was born on 2009 outside the USA

I believe my child can be a USA citizen since:
1) I am a USA citizen
2) I lived in the USA for more than 5 years (even after I was 14 years
old).

I have a few questions that you may help me:

1) I believe that the requirement of =935 years living in the USA=94
counts also the years that I lived in the USA before I obtained my
citizenship (when I was still a student). Could anybody confirm that
this is completely true?
2) What documents do I need to show to the US officer to proof that
I=92ve lived in the USA for more than 5 years?

I=92ve heard that I need to show copy of my taxes that I paid those
years. Is this true?
Do my college grades (showing the years that I studied in the USA)
would be good enough?

3) I heard that there are other ways that my child can obtained her
citizenship. I can get her a green card at the near US embassy (at my
country or residency) and as soon as the enters the USA she can get a
passport. Is this true? Can anybody explain me how it works?

Thank you very much.
