I am a US citizen by birth in America and I'm married with 2 children who are both with me and their mother born in wedlock I'm still gathering all the documents I need to give to the US Embassy. But im actually concerned because the country my daughters are born in is neither of the parents nationality but we did get married there and the mother was born in that same country but later went through naturalization in another country, and lost that nationality due to her naturalization. My children are indeed stateless since the country were in bases citizenships only by decent of the parents citizenships which neither of us have.

Will they still be eligible (being stateless) and getting their (CRBA) through me (the father) a U.S.CITIZEN

Your children are most likely not stateless - As children of a USC, they might be entitled to US citizenship, as well.

Child born abroad to a U.S. citizen parent or parents is not required to be born in a country where one of the parents is a citizen of to get U.S citizenship. For example, child born while parents are on vacation or military deployment.

 

Here is a sample requirement from the U.S. Embassy in the Philippines.

https://ph.usembassy.gov/u-s-citizen-services/birth/crba/

Child born in wedlock to one U.S. citizen parent and one non U.S. citizen parent on or after November 14, 1986:  A child born outside of the United States to one U.S. citizen parent and one non-U.S. citizen parent may be entitled to citizenship provided the U.S. citizen parent, prior to the birth of the child, had been physically present in the United States or one of its outlying possessions for five years, at least two years of which were after s/he reached the age of fourteen.

Lovely, becuz I'm trying so hard to avoid the immigration process of such a long process to make them USC.

Speaking of immigration process how about the mother (my spouse) when they say (alien parent) is that mean she has to have some kind of status or petition filed on her behalf or we can do that on a later time after the CRBA? Thank you all once again
