Who Is Bad Bunny and What Is His Immigration Status
Bad Bunny, born Benito Antonio MartÃnez Ocasio, is a Puerto Rican singer and rapper. As a U.S. citizen by birth, he holds American nationality and can live and work in the United States without a visa or special immigration status.
How Puerto Rican Citizenship Affects Immigration
Puerto Rico is a U.S. territory, so Puerto Ricans are U.S. citizens at birth. This means Bad Bunny does not need a green card or work permit in the U.S. and can travel freely between Puerto Rico and the mainland under federal law.
Travel, Residency, and Work Authorization
Bad Bunny frequently lives and works in the United States and Puerto Rico. His U.S. citizenship allows him to use a U.S. passport for international travel and to perform, record, and conduct business in the U.S. without immigration restrictions.
