I am USC and my both kids born here in Islamabad, Pakistan. I have filed Consular Report of Birth Abroad (CRBA), once I got this I applied for their US passport. This all done within 6 weeks time frame.

As per my understanding if one of the parent is USC then you minor child can get the US passport without going through IR-1/immigration process.

Eligibility for Citizenship

Eligibility for citizenship must be documentarily proven before a CRBA is issued. The following eligibility criteria apply to children born after November 14, 1986 and who are under the age of 18. A child born before November 14, 1986 or over the age of 18 is ineligible for a CRBA, but may still be eligible for a passport and citizenship. Contact the Embassy for more information.

  • A child born in wedlock to 2 U.S. citizen parents is a citizen as long as one of the parents has resided in the US sometime prior to the child’s birth.
  • A child born in wedlock to one U.S. citizen parent and one alien parent is a citizen as long as the US Citizen parent was present in the U.S. for 5 years prior to the child’s birth, two of which were after age 14.
  • A child born out of wedlock to a U.S. citizen mother is a citizen as long as the mother was physically present in the U.S. continuously for 12 months at any time prior to the child’s birth.
  • A child born out of wedlock to a U.S. citizen father is a citizen as long as paternity is clearly and convincingly established, the child is legitimated for the purpose of citizenship, and the father commits to financially support the child. The father must have been physically present in the U.S. for 5 years prior to the child’s birth, two of which were after age 14.
