Jackie Chan is NOT an American citizen and never has been. He always been a citizen of Hong Kong, and since 1997, China.
Jackie Chan became famous in the US with the release of Rumble in the Bronx. Although his movies were very popular amongst fans of martial arts movies, the movies were only available as bootleg / pirate copies through video outlets in places like China Town. When Rumble in the Bronx was released mainstream moviegoers suddenly 'discovered' Jackie Chan. Quentin Tarrantino was very influential in motivating for Jackie to get the Lifetime Achievement Award from MTV in 1995 and that cemented his fame in the US.
Jackie Chan has never migrated or emigrated or immigrated anywhere. He has lived in the US and Australia, temporarily calling them 'home' but has never had citizenship of another country besides Hong Kong / China.
Charles Chaplin never became a US citizen.
Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee are not brothers in the movie Jackie Chan. For one they don't even have the last name! Just think before you ask a question. Also don't ask a question you don't want to know the answer to! -Men in Black/Agent K

No he does not.
If you read "I am Jackie Chan" Jackie says that he was annoyed at the way he was treated by some talk shows.
Jackie Chan became famous almost overnight in Hong Kong when Snake in the Eagle's Shadow was released in 1978. Drunken Master cemented his position a few months later, however fame in the rest of the world was to take several years longer. It was only with the release of Rumble in the Bronx that Jackie became a household name in the US / Hollywood.
