US moves to tighten citizenship and immigration checks for children's passports
- The US State Department proposes requiring parents to prove their citizenship or immigration status when applying for their child’s passport.
- Parents could need documents such as a US passport, birth certificate, I-94 form or green card under the proposed rule.
- The proposal is part of President Donald Trump’s efforts to limit birthright citizenship and target “birth tourism”.
- The rule is still a proposal and comes amid legal challenges to Trump’s latest birthright citizenship order.
