Consular Report of Birth Abroad

[JackInTheBox 0]

I was reading about this...if my fiance's mom (who is an American citizen) filed one at the embassy my fiance would be an American Citizen already and wouldn't have to prove her mom lived in the US for 5 years?

My fiance thinks that she may have been registered at the embassy. We will call Monday to find out. Is their a specific division we should call or just ask to speak to any Consulate?

I don't quite understand what it means. I wish they were 100% clear

I hope she has it. She said believes her parents registered her at the embassy so this is what it would mean right?

If I am reading this right then this is pretty much all she would need to get a US passport right?

Anyone know any thing about these?

USEM may require a DNA test. Still a hell of a lot easier and cheaper going thru the entire immigration process.

If there's any chance at all of her getting her USC that easy I'd :jump all over it". Even if it takes hiring a lawyer.

I'd start by talking to American Services. You should call. USEM aren't normally that cooperative with filipinas!

I am so excited but I don't know if I should be ...my fiance says she believes that she was "registered" at the embassy...does that mean they will have a Consular Report of Birth Abroad? Is that all we need basically for the passport. ANyone? SOmeone has to know?

if her parents registered your fiancee before then she was given a CRBA certificate and a US passport..

does she have it now?? it will prove that she is a USC.

The government will ship to whatever address applies, I got my DD-214 From the Military Records people delivered to my temporary address in the Philippines it will take 2-3 weeks for delivery once they mail it. They will ship it regular mail.
