    That's not a serious argument. Are unlawful non-citizens not subject to the US jurisdiction? If so, then how can the US even enforce its laws against them? Do they have the diplomatic immunity? I read it somewhere on the internet: her own Twitter ("now X") feed.

    That's not a serious challenge. The wording is unambiguous: "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."

    This might be a ToS violation. You can't just accuse someone of lying about the most fundamental aspects of their lives just because you don't like them. Unless you provide strong evidence for Harris's not being born in the US, this is blatant slander, and, at the very least, inflammatory language.

    It is an outlandish idea because it proposes amending the 14th Amendment, which provides for a lot more than just the birthright citizenship. In fact, it may be one of the most fundamental parts of the post-Civil War Constitution.

    If there was no plea it most likely won't count as a conviction. They may still enquire about what actually happened.

    Did the defendant enter a guilty plea? If not, the lack of conviction will probably make them eligible for the visa (not a conviction for USCIS purposes). But, if conviction for immigration purposes has been established, this offense may count as a CIMT (crime involving moral turpitude), which could preclude the applicant from being admitted. Talking to a lawyer may be a good idea.

    Yes, that's exactly what I plan to do. I wasn't sure if it could work, so it's good to hear from someone with a first hand experience.

    I could try that the next time. When I check-in in the US I always use the US passport (that's my understanding of the law), so I fill in the Japanese immigration form with the same pp number.

    Sounds like she used her NZ passport when leaving NZ and showed the US passport when entering the US. She also might had left the US with the NZ passport being used for checking-in/buying the ticket. This method is recommended by many dual citizens, but I've always been skeptical about it. The problem arises when buying a round trip from the US to the country of second citizenship. I blame the airlines. This problem is even more exposed when traveling between a third country and the country of non-US citizenship. I've been using my US passport everywhere, including the EU, where I have the other citizenship. I often travel to Japan and, ofc, use the US passport to enter. However, with the new EU electronic authorization rule, airlines will demand to see if I'm authorized to enter the EU (from Japan). Using a different passport when leaving Japan could easily create an overstay there, so that's not an option. If worse comes to worse, I'll travel to the EU via a land border port of entry, excluding the annoying airlines from the process. Also, for anyone who may be interested: Using the non-US passport may make it difficult to obtain a TS security clearance if you're applying for certain gov positions.

    The risk is much higher if you're on a visa, though. I would buy the ticket with the passport that has the US visa, skip the electronic check-in, and do it in person, showing the passport of the destination country as a proof of entry authorization. CBP might not catch their departure otherwise, which is a huge risk.

    That's almost exactly the problem with US/EU dual citizens now with the ETIAS. We are supposed to exit the US with the US passport and enter the EU with the EU one. The airlines will demand to see the ETIAS for US citizens but dual citizens aren't eligible. My proposed solution: check in/buy the ticket with the UK passport bc that's in the CBP system! If the airline asks for NZ electronic authorization (or whatever the equivalent is) show them your NZ passport at the check in.

    It only depends on your risk-aversion. I'm highly risk-averse when it comes to anything immigration, for example, and I would definitely apply ASAP and postpone/cancel the trips, especially in the light of the most unpredictable admin in modern US history taking over. But that's me.
