Hello everyone. I hope someone here had been in a similar situation as mine and can answer my question. So, my husband is a US citizen and I was already a naturalized US citizen when my daughter was born but I would like her to have Philippine citizenship just like my son after reporting his birth before I got naturalized. I'm not really sure how to proceed. Is there anyone here who had been through this process? Thank you.

Hi Bethie,

 

1. First, you have to report your daughter's birth at the Philippine embassy same as you did for your son. 

2. She will considered as dual citizen.

3. Then you can apply for her Philippine passport.

 

Hope it helps! :)

Thanks...I guess my concern is, reporting her birth is different from when I reported my son's because I was not yet naturalized that time. This time though, I am already a US citizen prior to reporting her birth.

Though you are already Naturalized US citizen before she was born, she still considered as dual citizen because you are natural born in the Philippines.

Mom might need to be a dual citizen to start the process.

 

This is from the New York Consulate:

Per Philippine Embassy in DC, I should apply for dual citizenship first before starting the Report of Birth. They responded to my message after 4 days. Thank you.

I'm glad they confirmed that you needed to be a dual citizen first.

 

Good Luck
