a. The person could have acquired Venezuelan citizenship, in which case the "naturalized Venezuelan" box is marked.
b. If the person is born abroad but is the child of a Venezuelan mother or father, mark the second box, "born abroad to Venezuelan parents".
c. For the person born abroad who retains the foreign citizenship, mark the third box, "foreigner".
