Internationally adopted kids applying to college

@0spreyCV22,

I wonder if it’s different if you only do adoption in the US (we didn’t do a foreign adoption.) I didn’t need to do anything special in regards to SS # and he has never had any problem when getting hired.

I wonder if they changed the requirement of having to send original docs to get a passport. S got his in 2007, iirc.

“I believe @twoinanddone is correct about the type of visa the child enters on. Somewhere I dimly remember that children from some countries enter on a different visa that does not confer automatic citizenship.”

I don’t see anything in the law which says children entering from certain countries or on a certain type of visa don’t get automatic citizenship. Does anyone have a link to that information?
