[Alaska0311 0]

Hello!

I am a USC by naturalization. Living in Alaska right now. I want to get an CRBA for my 2 boys in the Philippines. I have met the physical reqs. My husband is non US citizen and works in Dubai. Our children are in the PI with my parents. I was wondering how do I file a CRBA if I am in Alaska and can not make it home for the appointment. My dad is a USC, can he do it for me if I get a special power of atty? im really lost! I miss my children so much!

Thank you all in advance!

Where you a U.S. citizen at the time of the applicant's birth in the PI? Physical presence is only part of the requirements, Your lacking pertinent information.

I would read this link if your lost. http://manila.usemba...itizenship.html

Yes I was a USC before I gave birth.. I read the link, thank you!

Still cant figure out what I will be needing if my parents are their legal guardians though.

Only the child's biological parent or legal guardian, preferably the U.S. citizen parent, can apply for a CRBA. Either parent, including a non-U.S. citizen parent, may execute and sign this application. If it will be signed and executed by a legal guardian, a special power of attorney from the parent(s) or guardianship affidavit must be submitted.

Either parent, including a non-U.S. citizen parent, may execute and sign this application. If it will be signed and executed by a legal guardian, a special power of attorney from the parent(s) or guardianship affidavit must be submitted. The application must be made before the child's 18th birthday and the child must make a personal appearance at the U.S. Embassy. We encourage parents to document their child(ren)'s citizenship as soon as possible after the birth(s). Delays in reporting of the birth of your child could cause inconvenience and possibly deprive your child of this valuable document because persons age 18 and over are not eligible for a CRBA. Information for persons over the age of 18 who are attempting to acquire citizenship through their U.S. citizen parent(s) as adults can be found on the Derivative U.S. citizenship for Adults page.

You can do it. if u can't get ur kids thru CRBA u can file an I-130 for ur kids. I know how u feel coz i left my kids for a few years before they came here.Good luck.I did CRBA too for my USC son.
