According to this article:
He was born in the US.
"Lin was born in Los Angeles, California, and grew up in a Christian family in the San Francisco Bay Area city of Palo Alto.[3][4][note 1] His parents, Gie-Ming and Shirley, emigrated from Taiwan to the United States in the mid-1970s.[7][8] They are dual nationals of both Taiwan and the U.S.[9] Lin's paternal family comes from Beidou, Changhua in Taiwan (his father's distant ancestors immigrated to Taiwan from Zhangpu County, Fujian, in mainland China, in 1707),[9][10][11] while his maternal grandmother immigrated to Southern Taiwan in the late 1940s from Pinghu, Zhejiang in mainland China."[9][12][13] http://www.ask.com/wiki/Jeremy_Lin
