Ways To Obtain U.S. Citizenship
There are several ways to obtain American citizenship. One of course is to be born in the United States or a Unites States territory or to be born to at least one American citizen parent. Someone who is a non-citizen can also apply through a process called naturalization. A parent who becomes naturalized can grant American citizenship to any of their children.
