Hi

We are expecting a Baby Girl. We are confused to have it deliverd here or India. We will be settling in India after 2 yr. You suggestions will be appreciated.
What are the pros and cons in this?

Chitra replied. Hi Priya...Congratulations...There is nothing wrong delivering your baby here in the States.. she will be a US Citizen and will have all the benefits of being the citizen of USA. These days there are many things u can look into, like getting ur daughter a PIO card. The PIO card will enable ur child to go to India without applying for a visa every time she goes there. When u go to India after 2 years, she can either retain her US citizenship or if u would like, apply for Indian citizenship. The benefit of her still having her US citizenship would be if later on in life she wants to continue her studies here in the USA, she can do so without any issues. Being a US citizen won' t make her think like an AMerican...just bec. she is American, she need not adopt the culture and values u see around here in the States...it all depends on her upbringing...and how much quality time u spend with her teaching about Indian norms, culture and moral values. Do not make a haste decision... think about it for a while...The decision is entirely left to u..in way it is matter of convenience than anythingelse..
