I'm American and my wife is a permanent resident from Sweden. We live in the U.S. We just had a baby and we'd like it to have dual citizenship. She called the Swedish (whatever office it is) and they told her she needed to check with the U.S. about whether or not that was possible. I can't believe they wouldn't know more info, this must happen all the time. Anyone here had a baby in the U.S. And filed for dual citizenship in Sweden?
