No, because she wanted to give birth in her own country and she is not an illegal in case you are wondering. The baby might still be a US Citizen depending if they register the birth with the US Consulate in El Salvator

No, because she wanted to give birth in her own country and she is not an illegal in case you are wondering.

"Because" is usually not the whole story. Again, is this an anchor baby in reverse? IOW did she want to make sure the child had citizenship back home?

And I wasn't wondering if she is illegal.

The baby might still be a US Citizen depending if they register the birth with the US Consulate in El Salvator

Just like I did with my oldest daughter. In return she received a Consular Report of Birth Abroad of a Citizen of The United States of America.

Note: This is not my daughter's, but some random one floating around the web.

It’s not the core issue of the story, but where did you learn of the couple’s citizenship status? I didn’t see it in this article.

From other articles I read it appears neither parent is a US citizen. They are missionaries who were in the US on visas.
