Are you planning on giving up your US Citizenship?  If you want to get german citizenship you really should think seriously about this.  As is the case with most countries, naturalization is possible, but costly.  Germany's population (taken anglo) is in decline and the (gov't and citizenry) are quite miffed about the 'new immigrants.'  Be mindful of their attitude here and they are VERY ethnocentric in their requirements (language requirement, etc)\n\nPlease contact the Consolate in your area   http://www.germany.info/relaunch/info/consular_services/citizenship.html  \n\nbest.\n\nhttp://www.germany.info/relaunch/info/missions/consulates.html

You must have proof of citizenship (a certified birth certificate) and proof of identity to get a passport. If you do not have a government issued photo ID, you can bring a non-photo ID such as a SS card or credit card AND a person who can vouch that you are who you say you are who has a government issued photo ID.

You definitely need a passport, but whether or not you need a visa depends on which countries you're visiting, which country your passport is from, and how long you are staying. (If you have a US passport, you don't need a visa. But I don't think they give US passports to permanent residents, only citizens.)\n\nThe website below will tell you what documents you need to visit EU countries. If you're visiting a non-EU country, do a search for that country and the word "visa."

Here is the website for you to apply for an American Passport:\n\nhttp://travel.state.gov/passport/get/first/first_832.html\n\nYou have to submit your passport application at the post office.  Be aware not all post offices accept passport aplications and some only do it certain days and certain times of the day.  Here is a link for you to find out the nearest place you can apply:  http://iafdb.travel.state.gov/

You will need a friend in the UK to do this for you or go to a bank with locations in both Germany and the UK.  Or, go to an investment banking company who will for a fee do this.

assuming both father and mother have custody, both parents and the baby need to appear at the nearest passport agent with the state certified birth certificate, two regulation passport photos, drivers licenses or other accepted government picture ids (i.e. foreign passports or us permanent resident cards) and the proper fees. the nearest passport agent can be found at travel.state.gov. allow 45 day time frame from application, 18 day time frame if expedite fees paid. best advice - dont buy tickets until passport is in hand. also, check with the german embassy or consulate to see if the child would be considered a dual citizen and subjected differently to the law in germany. travel.state.gov can also help.

It will depend on the citizenship laws of the European country. Some countries allow citizenship to pass down as many as three generations, others only one generation. I would suggest your contact an attorney/notary/solicitor in the EU country you are interested in and see if you can qualify.\n\nAs an American, you are legally allowed to possess dual citizenship, but it can present a problem when traveling abroad (i.e. which passport do you use?). What many dual nationals do is attempt to have the border officers in the foreign state stamp both the U.S. and the other passport upon entry. This eases your re-entry to the U.S. \n\nGood luck!

I understand one may have had to "renounce" your Spanish citizenship when you became a citizen, but this renunciation is not recognized as valid in Spain, unless you did so in front of a Spanish consul or judge. \n\nIf you or she were born in Spain, go to  a Spanish consulate and they will make the arrangements to get you a Spanish/EU passport.

You probably need to check the Home Office site on this url: http://www.homeoffice.gov.uk/passports-and-immigration/immigration/\n\nOr here: http://www.ind.homeoffice.gov.uk

Try applying for a visa or a Green card at an American embassy or consulate. Then you can apply for citizenship, in which you will have to pass a test.

As far as I know there is no "european greencard", every single country has it's own immigration and visa regulations.\n\nA good start is to find a job, I enclosed a side which you can check. If you find an employeer he will be able to contact the local authorities and will find a way for a visa. \n\nIf you have a certain country in mind I suggst you contact the emabssy or nearest consulate of is country in the US.\n\nI enclosed the site of the german consulate which you can harvest.\n\nOther helpul websites for germany are: www.job.de, www.moster.de.\n\nI would like you to encourage to work some years outside of the US, it definitely widens the horizon and you will make  a lot of new friends.\n\nGood luck !

Easy. If you have a British passport (or the citizenship of any EU/EEA/Swiss country) you can move to Holland anytime. You just register with the town hall on arrival and get the equivalent of a national insurance number from the appropriate office . . . and off you go to find a job, start a business, learn the language, marry a Dutch girl, raise a family, buy a bicycle and some tulips and live happily ever after.

Well, the easiest would be by marrying a Swiss partner and living 5 years in Switzerland.\nOtherwise you would have to wait at least 8 (?) years after immigrating to Switzerland before you could ask for Citizenship - and it may be denied easily.

Can't say for Germany, as I have never looked into it, but I would assume that they have similar standards as the US does.  US requires legal entry into the US, a bona fide address and a permanent US address for a non citizen to join the military.  Military service can help to expedite someones citizenship, but does not guarantee it.
