Children born abroad to two US citizen parents, one of whom has resided in the US prior to the birth of the child, continue to be US citizens at birth, and need take no special actions to retain citizenship.

Children born to one citizen parent and one foreign national will obtain citizenship at birth if the citizen parent resided in the US for five years before the birth, with two of those years after the age of 14. The child does not need to take any special action to retain US citizenship.

Children born out of wedlock to a US citizen mother will be US citizens if the mother resided in the US for one year prior to the birth of the child.

Children born out of wedlock to a US citizen father will acquire US citizenship if the following conditions are met:

1. There is an established blood relationship between the father and the child,
2. The father was a US citizen at the time of the birth,
3. The father has agreed to financially support the child until it is 18, and
4. Before the child is 18 it is legitimated, or the father acknowledges paternity in a document signed under oath

My remarks are not meant to suggest that written regulations facilitating the bureaucrat's illusion that he's 'on top of things' exist now...

Of course they don't.

Cloning, especially Human cloning is a cutting-edge concept.

The regulations will emerge... But there cannot be an FAA without the Wright brothers to do something REAL first.

My point here is that, until that gibberish gets penciled in, I expect my over-paid bureaucrats to be able to walk and chew gum at the same time.
