Detailed explanation-1: -Contrary to popular belief, military bases are not considered “U.S. soil” for citizenship purposes. Therefore, the only way children born abroad can acquire citizenship at birth is through their parents.
Detailed explanation-2: -I was born on a U.S. military base overseas. Did I automatically acquire U.S. citizenship at birth? No. A U.S. military base overseas is not considered U.S. territory.
Detailed explanation-3: -Amendment XIV, Section 1, Clause 1 of the U.S. Constitution directs that all persons born in the United States are U.S. citizens. This is the case regardless of the tax or immigration status of a person’s parents.
Detailed explanation-4: -Citizenship at Birth in the United States – Children born to foreign parents present under diplomatic status. These parents are expressly immune from the application of certain U.S. laws, so they must affirmatively elect for the child to become subject to the laws of the United States.
Detailed explanation-5: -A child born outside the United States or its outlying possessions to two U.S. citizen parents, in wedlock, is entitled to citizenship, provided one parent has, prior to the birth of the child, been resident in the United States or one of its outlying possessions. No specific period of time is required.
