I'm absolutely ethnic Chinese, but it would seem that I don't qualify. My parents left mainland China in 1949 and have never been PRC citizens. My US birth certificate doesn't indicate I'm of Chinese descent (it says, "Oriental").

I wonder how China would verify?
Funny how you never wrote Taiwanese but everybody guessed it anyway.
China accepts everybody as Chinese, so I wouldn't worry too much about it. Unlike Taiwanese ...
