1. Absence of less than 60 days in the aggregate (total) will not
break continuity of physical presence for this purpose. Honorable
service in US armed forces counts as residence or physical
presence.
2. No specific period of residence is required if alien parent
naturalized before child reaches 18 years and child begins to
reside permanently in U.S. prior to 18th birthday.
3. Physical presence abroad of dependent unmarried son or
daughter as member of household of a person serving honorably in
U.S. Armed Forces or employed by U.S. government or international
organization may be counted as physical presence.
4. The retention requirement was repealed by Act of 10/10/78.
Persons who had on
10/10/78 failed to retain are relieved from having to do so.
Those who have previously lost citizenship by a failure to
satisfy retention requirements of the Acts of 1934, 1940, and
1952 may NOT be reinstated.
5. Until Oct 20, 94, only father could transmit. Changed with
President Clinton signing the Technical Corrections Bill giving
citizenship to children of US citizen mothers.
