【所有中文网站都没有相关信息！我们是在美国驻小印的领馆网页上找到的。】
我们给美领馆打电话问相关的情况，他们也完全不知道，最后他们坚持给小孩发了一个
旅游的签证，说是怕入关的时候不给入关。后来我们又通过邮件联系USCIS咨询相关的
情况，也没有得到有价值的信息。
后来看到美国驻印度领事馆的网站上有相关信息，他们也有人问相关的情况（估计印度
这个人口大国也有很多类似的情况吧。。），就是怎么样给小孩申请绿卡。我们后来找
到了美国官方的法律文件，和一个海关的指引性文件（见附件）。 这两个官方文件非
常清楚的说了，只要孩子妈妈是绿卡持有者，那么小孩自动获得绿卡！
我们5月份带小孩回美国，拿着旅游签证入关，过关的时候，给关员看这两份文件（是
个华裔，磨磨蹭蹭了非常非常久）。后来他又找他的上司，然后其上司又把我们的护照
，绿卡等证件，以及小孩的护照都拿过去，又过大概半小时，后来直接就把我们带到了
所谓的小黑屋（面积也不小，人也不少，很多是坐飞机来后，可能要被遣返的，因为相
关证件不全或者是旅行目的地不明确）。让我们等，话说他们的办事效率果然低，慢悠
悠的，很像Zootopia动画里的sloths，呵呵。
等了大概一个小时后，然后，告诉我们弄好了，可以走了。给了我们一张绿卡纸。说大
概两个礼拜之后，正式的卡就会寄到家里（后来超过2个月才拿到）。然后还把在中国
出生的这个出生证的原件给收走了。说他们要留底。。。
怎么样，还是很简单吧？
所以，以后同胞们如果万一一定要回中国生小孩的话，小孩的绿卡身份是有保障的。。。

发帖数: 71 | 2 A child is born to a LPR during a temporary absence from
the U.S.
Question: A child is born to a lawful permanent
resident mother during her temporary absence
from the U.S. What must the parent do to be able to
bring their child back to the United States and
obtain LPR status for him/her?
Answr: Children born during the temporary visit abroad of a
lawful permanent resident (LPR) mother are classified as NA3.
· A child who meets the requirements of the NA3 classification is
exempt both the passport and immigrant visa requirement when
arriving in the U.S. for the first time.
· The child must apply for admission to the United States
within two years of birth.
· The child must be accompanied by the parent who is
applying for readmission as a lawful permanent resident
upon the first return of the parent to the United States after
the birth of the child.
· The accompanying parent will be admitted as an LPR per
normal procedures and must be admissible to the United States.
· The relationship between the parent and child must be
established, usually by a government issued birth certificate (full
version listing names of parents) with a certified (notarized)
English translation, if applicable. The translator must certify that
the translation is accurate and complete and that he or she is
competent to translate from the foreign language into English.
· The child's admission as an immigrant will be recorded at the
port of entry on form I-181, which will then be forwarded to
USCIS by CBP. The child will also be issued an A-file number
by DHS that may then be used to establish eligibility for other
federal, state, and local government programs within the United
States. http://www.uscis.gov/tools/glossary/number
· After the birth of the child during a temporary visit abroad, if
the LPR mother seeks readmission to the U.S. and is not
accompanied by the child, the child would then be required to
have an immigrant visa and passport before seeking admission to
the United States, even if the child subsequently arrives within
two years of birth. If the child does not apply for admission
prior to the age of two (2) with an accompanying LPR
parent, the child will be required to present an immigrant visa
and passport in order to be admitted to the United States as a
lawful permanent resident. Requirements to determine eligibility
and the process for obtaining an immigrant visa are outlined at
www.uscis.gov and www.travel.state.gov. | d*****u

within the validity of the parent’s immigrant visa; or
(ii) Born during the lawful permanent resident mother’s temporary visit
abroad provided that:
· Admission is within 2 years of birth; and
· Either accompanying parent is applying for readmission upon first
