Wait, so are you saying the request for a CRBA requires people to have sex for 5 years first? Wow, what a progressive government!
I am saying that US mothers now have the same US physical presence requirement in years as the US fathers do, when it comes to children born abroad where only one of the two parents is a US citizen. It used to be that US mothers only needed to document one year of US physical presence while US fathers needed to document five years of US physical presence. Now both US males and US females in such situations as the OP need to have five years of US physical presence instead of one year for US females and five years for US males.
