Were you born abroad of an American parent or parents or did you become a citizen by
naturalization?
¿Es usted hijo de padres Americanos pero nacido en el extranjero, o se hizo usted ciudadano por
naturalización?
Most respondents recommended breaking up this question into two: one asking if the person was
born abroad of American parents, and another asking if the person became a citizen through
naturalization.
One respondent explained that this question asked three things. Esta pregunta pide tres cosas
distintas: si uno es de padres americanos, si es nacido en el extranjero, y si se hizo ciudadano
por naturalizaci

Since the universe for this question is conceivably people who were not born in the United
States, this question could be simplified by asking if the respondent’s parents are American or if
the respondent became a citizen through naturalization.
