    And if you were a US citizen when your first child was born, your kids are automatically also US citizens. Get a passport for them, and there will be no problem.

  • Thanks Coke, but my question is mostly aimed for my kids, I have no problem and I will enter as a US citizen, but they will have the issue I described

  • @Chris Not if they're US citizens too. Sebastian said something important: care to clarify it?

  • It doesn't work because I don't fulfill the requirements to pass the citizenship to my kids. I did not live 5 years in the US, I grew up in Mexico.

  • I already tried that, I can naturalize them, but only when I reside in the US. And that would be a lengthy process.
