My understansing is, citizenship is acquired at time of birth, by operation of law if child meets all criteria. CRBA is to get proof of citizenship and documentation of it.

 

Similar to a homeless guy living under bridge. He may not have an ID or docs, but is a US citizen if was born on US soil.

Your understanding is wrong.

 

CRBA is not used for people born on US soil.

In summary, it took 13 months for approval of the CR-1.  It took 44 months for approval of the I-751.  It took 4 months for approval of the N-400.   It took 172 days from N-400 application to Oath Ceremony.   It took 6 weeks for Passport, then 7 additional weeks for return of wife's Naturalization Certificate..

@OldUser’s analogy is correct. CBRA is simply proof of the citizenship, it’s not a granting of citizenship. Just like somebody without a US passport can still be a US citizen, as it’s just evidence of that status. 
 

So CBRA is for somebody that was born a US citizen, to prove that they are one and get that fact documented.

It is a violation to ask questions? 

 

But trolling is allowed???
