evidence: - Both of the child’s parents were U.S. citizens at the time of the child’s birth; and - Either the U.S. citizen father meets the requirements to transmit citizenship under INA 309[44] or the U.S. citizen mother was physically present in the United States or one of its outlying possessions for a continuous[45] period of 1 year before the child’s birth.[46] [...] [^ 22] A separate agreement or contract is not required for the father to satisfy the requirement. See INA 309(a)(3). See the Immigration and Nationality Act Amendments of 1986, Pub. L. 99–653 (PDF) (November 14, 1986). [...] [^ 27] A court document may be signed by a judge rather than the father, but may still serve as evidence to meet this requirement if there is an indication in the record of proceedings that the father consented to the determination of paternity.
