Hi. She needs to go to a Bureau of Immigration office to pay her overstay fees. Because of her condition, she will need a companion. If you want her to return to the US, she needs ECC (exit clearance) and will need someone to accompany her during the flight. IMO, you need to discuss with family members where it's best for her to stay - PH or US. Good luck.

A disadvantage for a dual citizen individual, for example - a U.S. & Filipino dual citizen, you would not be 'eligible' to work for a (U.S.) government, a government contractor or any other entity that requires you to have a 'top secret' clearance as a job/work, which is usually a high-paying job, however there are exceptions.

As an American, whose mother was Filipino (deceased), I fall under the rules "before" January 17, 1973. At the age of 61, I am not eligible to acquire Philippine Citizenship, because I did not elect the citizenship at the age of majority (18) or within three years. The problem with this today is that due to the use of the Internet, we can find all the information we need on Philippine citizenship, but back in 1979 - 1982 (I turned 18 with 3 years after), there was no internet....no information readily available. As a result many people of partial Philippine ancestry are excluded from Citizenship. The only question I have for the future, do you think they will retroactively change that policy for people who fall under rules "before" January 17, 1973? It appears that today, it is much easier for all other categories of mixed ancestry Filipinos to acquire Philippine Citizenship (everyone after January 17, 1973)

[@kitty_s23456]

Hi. Unfortunately, there's no move from Congress to make the law retroactive (to children born before Jan 1973). It's not their priority. As an alternative, you can inquire from a PH embassy/ consulate if you are eligible for the 13G visa (permanent residence), if you are interested in living/ retiring in PH.

[@HankHill757]

One negative of having dual citizenship in the US, especially for a younger person. If you have dual citizenship and are trying to get a job that requires a security clearance, you will never get the clearance. There’s always the question of your loyalty to the US. Examples would be certain federal government jobs, certain occupations in the military, and jobs with private companies that are military or government contractors.

We don’t care about their government. Dual citizenship is the shit.

[@kitty_s23456]

Yes, there are some federal positions (that need security clearance) and or if you work in the US military = you are allowed only US citizenship. If there is a war and you happen to be in PH during that time as a dual citizen, the US govt will prioritize US citizens (not duals) for repatriation. Reaquiring PH citizenship is a choice. For those who wish to retire in PH and are 60+, many choose to have PH/ dual citizenship simce they can stay forever in PH and they can get a PH senior ID card (and benefits).

Under his and your circumstances, he would be treated as any foreign citizen. He probably should look into becoming a lawful permanent resident first. There are numerous avenues for your son to become a Philippine citizen and he would need to choose which suits his needs/timeline. BUT one thing he will need to look out for if he decides to naturalize is if he has to renounce his US Citizenship which could become a bad proposition. When one becomes a US Naturalized Citizen, they in fact renounce their foreign citizenship. I’ve not ran into any documentation if it is or not renounced to obtain Philippine citizenship.

Good day po. My auntie is 92 y/o , US citizen, plans to go Phil.for good. What’s the best thing to do? Should she still need to get dual citizenship ?

[@GenieSchmidt]

What are the requirements?

[@gramo63]

The Philippine Government -- or Congress -- should REPEAL the LAW that mandates AUTOMATIC FORFEITURE of Filipino Citizenship, when one becomes a naturalized citizen of a foreign country. When a foreigner applies for and becomes a naturalized Filipino citizen, he does NOT forfeit his original citizenship.

[@xianwin]

You can always reapply for dual citizenship

[@ropineapplehead2198]

AUTOMATIC FORFEITURE is not Philippine law, it is a requirement by the country one wishes to naturalize. Philippine law allows you to retain/reacquire one’s Filipino citizenship.

Hi Jocelyn ! I have been watching your YT channel about all topics. To make it short to my questions, I am US citizen but former Filipino ,I’m going home to Philippines around October 2023 and I’m going to apply for dual citizenship, but I’m also bringing my son with me who was born in US. What is our travel situation to be considered. I mean ,do I stands as Balikbayan and my son as well? Or is he a tourist only as he will only stay there for two to three weeks. Please clarify me and my son in order to be more prepare or aware and perhaps be at ease when traveling to Philippines! Thank you!!

[@lilys5095]

You, as a former Filipino, is considered a Balikbayan and can stay in PH for a year, visa-free. Bring proof of being a former Filipino (old PH passport, PH birth certificate). Your kid, thru you, will also be considered a Balikbayan (if he travels with you). Bring his birth certificate showing you are the mother. If your kid is a minor, it is best to have a letter from the father allowing the kid to travel with you without the father. This is only suggestion in case you are questioned.

[@jasonjames4254]

@@lilys5095 This is correct. And I would get that letter from the father authorizing travel notorized. The Philippines is trying to prevent the trafficking of children.

[@cannyeyes382]

@@lilys5095 What if your foreign husband passed away, does they need to have proof of a letter from the country where they came from?

[@simplicity2022]

@@cannyeyes382my answer there is, bring his death certificate.

May I suggest apply for dual citizenship in the states if you are in a nearby philippine consulate... getting a dual in the Philippines through the bureau of immigration is SHIT, you'll just waste too much time and repeated visits...

[@jps0369]

Ok…I was born in the Philippines in 1969 and migrated in the US in 86, and became a US citizen. I want to retire in the Philippines and looking into a dual citizenship but can not locate or find my Philippines passport. What else can I do??

[@cgpark5027]

A US citizen friend was born in Singapore in 1980 where her parents married and expat residents there. Her mother was a Filipino at the time of her birth while her father was a natural born US citizen. Her birth was reported at the US State Dept but not to the PH embassy in Sg. This friend learned about dual citizenship. She has a copy of her mom's PH passport confirming her mom was still a PH citizen when my friend was born but she doesn't have her mom's birth certificate. Is my friend a PH citizen too? If so, how can she claim her PH citizenship. Her dad is now deceased and her elderly mom is senile. Any help is greatly appreciated

[@SuperZettesu]

They can get an affidavit from friends to support the claim . I did that .2 disinterested person to make an affidavit that thry know the mother and child personslly .It is accrpted by the immigration .. dith proper Documentation ..

[@gingerchan6707]

Were married in United States in 1998 are we acquire dual citizenship.

My son was born in Clark AFB during the volcanic eruption in 1991, and can we process his papers through the mail also he has his driver's license and Passport or do we have to do that on person

[@ropineapplehead2198]

If you’re in the US, you have to check the consulate (or embassy) that serves your state as the processes may differ between the jurisdictions.

[@lawrence.centinales]

how soon can you apply after becoming a us citizen?

[@maaa.a.8003]

Hi, I was born in the US and my mom was naturalized a year after. Can I still qualify to receive a Philippine citizenship? This was before 1973.

[@kitty_s23456]

It depends. Was your father a Filipino citizen at the time of your birth? This is because you were born before 1973.

[@ambassadoroffaith1018]

Its good also to remain your Filipino citizen because more fun in the Philippines 🇵🇭

[@janjaylangelo4]

Question, My 3 natural born Filipino kids converted to US citizen while they were minor when I became naturalized US citizen. Are they considered dual citizen?
