The policy guidance issued Wednesday stated that USCIS “no longer considers children of U.S. government employees and U.S. armed forces members residing outside the United States as ‘residing in the United States’ for purposes of acquiring citizenship under INA 320.”
The policy guidance issued Wednesday stated that USCIS “no longer considers children of U.S. government employees and U.S. armed forces members residing outside the United States as ‘residing in the United States’ for purposes of acquiring citizenship under INA 320.”
“USCIS issued a clarification to the rule later Wednesday, explaining that the new rule would only affect three categories of people: Children of non-U.S. citizens adopted by U.S. citizen government employees or service members; children of non-U.S. citizen government employees or service members who were naturalized after the child's birth; and children of U.S. citizens who do not meet residency requirements.”
This is the current policy. This new policy is suppose to go into effect in October 2019.

Task and purpose is pretty darn good at making sure links are inserted into their news. I hope this goes before the Supreme court and gets booted. Life overseas is difficult enough, military families don't need to have this added to it.

That article was a complete mess, it should be taken down, and rewritten.
The new rule doesn't effect US citizens, calm down.

You have to ask yourself what kind of Administration would even consider this type of change? The answer is only one that is blatantly inept and that has nothing but disdain for the men and women who represent this nation overseas.
