My child is American and Italian, can he be deported?

In Italy, as I recall, citizenship is only by descent -- by birth to an Italian citizen. Therefore, your child only has a right to US citizenship if you were a US citizen at the time of the child's birth. You do need to register "birth to a US citizen while abroad." And you need to obtain US passport, then get the proper visas, etc, for the child to remain in Italy. Therefore, if you did not obtain the proper visa, documents, passport, etc, your child is not legally present in Italy, and can be deported. Along with you for your failure to abide by Italian law.

Anyone who has a child while outside of their country of citizenship must check immigration laws of their own country of citizenship and the country where the birth took place. Failure to do so can really foul up citizenship & immigration matters for the child!

Considered to be American isn't really the same as recognized to be an American. Contact the American Citizens Services Section at the nearest US consulate or the embassy in Rome and see what needs to be done to have the child's US citizenship recognized. Normally, a child born to an American mother is eligible for citizenship, but the mother would need to show 5 years of US residence, including 2 since the age of 14 in order to transmit citizenship to the child. There's quite a bit of information on this at travel.state.gov. Plus, you can contact the ACS sections through their websites available at usembassy.state.gov.

Of course it can. Italy doesn't care where the child was born and neither does any other EU nation. Unlike the US where citizenship is FORCED onto the child (making certain children ineligible for citizenship of their parents) the EU countries go by descent.

That's a US problem! Race across the border, pop out a kid and you have an American citizen who can not be a Mexican citizen. Even if the parents were just here for a visit and wanted the child to have Mexican citizenship!

If the child is not an Italian citizen or resident, he or she can be deported. No country deports its own citizens.

If your child have American and Italian citizenship they cannot be deported from each country.

That is why the US frown on dual citizenship.

If he has dual citizenship then he can NOT be deported at all unless he entered Italy using a US passport. In that case I am not sure if they still would do anything though.

Bottom line NO!!

And USA does not make families stay if they are illegal and have anchor babies. The parents can still be deported and can leave with their babies if they want or can leave them with others with lawful presence.

"Many immigrants who're in america illegally in no way jumped a fence, hiked in the direction of the barren area or paid everyone to help them sneak into the country. in accordance to a modern-day learn, 40 5 % of unlawful immigrants got here right here on a criminal visa, and then overstayed that visa." -nicely i desire all illegals deported, the folk who overstayed visas ought to be greater convenient to hint, yet in all probability someplace around ninety% of that 40 5% of illegals who overstay are mexican...that may no longer asserting to concentration on mexicans or to be racist, this is actuality that ninety% of human beings in the country illegally are from mexico.

I dunno. Ask John Grisham. he wrote the book called Playing For Pizza and one of the players on the football team in Italy was a judge in Italy..(also a true story..not the book, but he did know a judge there who was a football player) Other than that I doubt it. Italians aren't as paranoid as Americans are. The birth rate there is way to low to go kicking anyone out.

where the child was born is his or her natural citizenship, he or she can not be deported from that country. His parents can though...depending on the laws of that country...the US lets the whole family stay if the kid was born here...

if your baby is born in america he is considered american but that the only way your baby will be american is if he was born on american soil otherwise he is italian
