If the Child had Only One Citizen Parent, Determine Whether the Parent had Sufficient Residence or Physical Presence in the U.S. Prior to the ChildÂ’s Birth to Convey U.S. Citizenship on the Child
Prior to the 1934 Act, only citizen fathers who had resided in the U.S. prior to the childÂ’s birth could convey citizenship. The 1934 Act provided that a citizen father or mother could convey citizenship to a child born abroad if he or she had resided in the U.S. prior to the birth of the child. Since the 1940 Act, things have become more complicated.
The citizen parent is required to reside, or be physically present, in the U.S. for a certain number of years, some of which must occur after the parent reaches a specified age. Significantly for Filipinos, the 1940 Act, for the first time, provided that the residence of the parent(s) could be in the U.S. “or its outlying possessions”. This was important since the Philippines was an outlying possession of the United States from 1899 until its independence on July 4, 1946.
