The PAAF Act provides automatic U.S. citizenship for certain internationally adopted individuals.
The Protect Adoptees and American Families Act, or PAAF Act, amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to automatically grant U.S. citizenship to internationally adopted individuals who meet specific criteria. This includes those adopted by a U.S. citizen before reaching 18 years of age, provided they undergo a criminal background check and meet other conditions. The Act ensures that grounds of inadmissibility do not apply to these individuals seeking admission to the United States.
