That's my read..!!! If American citizens have a child born overseas (foreign country) they can go to the US Embassy or Consulate and register the child as an American citizen.

It cannot be prepared if the child has been brought back into the United States (although a different document may be requested - see the next two paragraphs), or, if the child is 18 years of age or older at the time the application is made.
