A child born outside the U.S. where one or both parents are US Citizens, may acquire U.S. citizenship at birth. Acquisition of citizenship for a child born out of wedlock may also be possible. Providing for acquisition of citizenship requires the US citizen parent ot reside int he u.S. for certain time periods prior to the birth of the child. Additionally, a child born outside the U.S. may become a US citizen as a matter of law by virtue of his or her parent or parents' naturalization. A child may be a deriviative USC where one parent is an alien and the other is a USC if the alien parent becomes naturalized while the child is under 18 and the child is residing in the U.S. as an Legal Permanent resident in the cutsody of the parent.
