Citaat:Although birth tourist travel to the United States was previously permissible under the medical treatment category, in January 2020 State updated the FAM to include specific provisions on travel to give birth. That FAM section states “visiting temporarily for pleasure does not include travel for the primary purpose of obtaining U.S. citizenship for a child by giving birth in the United States.” If consular officers believe the applicant will give birth during her time in the United States, the applicant is “presumed to be traveling for the primary purpose of obtaining U.S. citizenship for the child.” This rebuttable presumption can be overcome if the applicant establishes some other legitimate purpose for the travel.
