Both my wife and I are US permanent
resident. My baby son was recently born
in my home country. Now, my wife wants to bring my son
to U.S. Could you please let me know how can we bring our son here? and
does he need a visa?
A:
A baby becomes a
U.S. citizen automatically if he/she was born in the U.S. A child born
abroad of permanent resident parents may enter the U.S. without a visa, provided
the child is accompanied by a parent upon that parent’s initial return to the
U.S. within two years of the child’s birth, with documentation showing the
parent-child relationship.
If the permanent
resident parents leave the child abroad with family members and return to the
U.S. without the child, the child must have an immigrant visa to enter the
U.S.
