The n-600 fee is $1200, which is ridiculously expensive.
It will supposedly more than double that amount in the next few months?
Hi Jim, you look great!
USCIS in their own site tells you that the N-600 is optional and not required. Hence, you DO NOT NEED TO FILE A N-600.
Also, by the operation of the law, DHS cannot deport a US Citizen who has a valid passport.
Once you have a US Passport, issued by Department of State, USCIS/DHS has no power to undo that decision. All they can do is to request Department of State to consider revoking the person in question. However, the decision is still up to the Department of State and if they decide not to revoke the passport, then the person in question regardless of what USCIS thinks, is a US Citizen.
I am a derived citizen and have lived in the US since the 80s (Father naturalized in the early 90s) and NEVER EVER had any issue by not having a Certificate of Citizenship.
While my status never officially changed as US Citizen to USCIS, I was able to petition my wife from overseas using only US Passport. So if USCIS has me as a LPR in their system, how was I able to bring my spouse from overseas? Because my US Passport is a conclusive proof of my US CItizenship and there is not a thing that USCIS can do about it.
Yes, having a Certificate of Citizenship is a good idea, because it is irrefutable and has no expiration date. However, if it was that important, USCIS website would have said so. I am the living proof that Certificate of Citizenship is not required as I had no problem living without one as a derived citizen.
Hi Steve I hope you’re doing great. How did you get your passport if you don’t mind me asking.
My brother is 38, my dad became a citizen before my brother was 18 (he lived with him as well).
Could he just apply for a passport? Thank you for your time.
@@cristianduran5773 Were both parents a US Citizen prior to your brother’s 18th birthday? If not, can you specify your parents’ marriage status on your brother’s 18th birthday? Thanks. The reason behind this is because if your biological parents were divorced, you must provide evidence of your father's legal and physical custody. If your parents were married, then the marriage certificate suffices legal custody.
Hey Steve, thanks for sharing, but I have a question, I'm a naturalized citizen, I brought my son who's a LPR at this moment, he's 15, how can I go about getting a passport for him?
@@agresiv0 Hello! Can you specify what you mean by "brought my son?" Did you petition him for your son as a beneficiary to receive IR2 visa? Also, were you married to the son's mother when the son was born? Are you two now divorced? Reason for all these questions are because of the "legal custody" requirement. Let me know. Thank you.
@@stevekim6862 at the time I started the petition I was a LPR, I became a citizen while the petition was in process, my current wife is not his mother
Thank you for the information, just what I needed.

Thanks for watching, my friend!
My parents became citizens in the 70s. I was brought over from korea AFTER they became citizens when i was two years old.
I married a US born woman and im now 48. I have filed and completed an N600. I took the test, and interview at my local UCIS Field office. I passed both, but have not heard back. Am I a citizen?

I am a US citizen for 50 years through Naturalization. I was 16 years when I came to America with my mom. My last name was misspelled . I sent an Application with my birth certificate translated to make me a new passport with the correct spelling. I opened a can of worms. Now the Huston office like to know what names I have been using. I was using George instead of Georgios And E for middle initial instead
Emmanuel. I consulted with an Attorney and they said to make name change with the court.
When you suggest?
They kept my passport.
I will appreciate your response. Thank you 🙏
Hello. I was adopted when I was I minor by US citizen Navy Commander father based in Subic and a filipina mother that eventually became a US Citizen. As years passed, we do not know that the adoption here in the Philippines was approved by the judge. We only found out about it when we are already adults applying for birth certificate at PSA. We are now wondering if we are still eligible for US citizenship. I hope someone can shed light to this matter. Thank you very much.
At least they refund the money if the case is rejected.
yeap!
My father died when I was 6 years old, I managed to enter the United States with a green card at 14 years old and I began to collect my father's social security benefit to support myself. I was deported for 2 years of probation when I was 24. I have no possibility of applying for my citizenship. Do you think I can do that at the embassy personally?

Question in N-600 : What is your father’s spouse’s country of citizenship or nationality?
If the father and mother became a citizen, should they answer United State? Or it’s the country they was born?

I have a question my dad became a citizen in 1987 and I came into the United States in 1983 as a permanent resident with my mother but she became a citizen in 2000 or 2001 Now I got into trouble and was deported in 2000, could I be a us citizen and not even know it ?
Both parents must of been us citizens. Depends on the law that applied to you. The law changed on 2/28/2001.
Only one side of the parent need to be a USC it’s enough evidence already not Both !
@vidanaps714 Oh really ?
My dad became a citizen before I was 18, I was living in Jamaica (he married my mom when I was 16). I did not move to the U.S until just after my 21st birthday and have been living with him since (5 years). I am currently a permanent resident and wondering I should file N400 or N600 since I didn't live with him until after I turned 21?
Hi. Let say we go for the passport. Can my son travel in and out of the US? Will there be a problem?
Hello, what if I don’t have access to my parent’s birth certificate or citizenship certificate( he refuses to give them to me). I was born in 2001 outside of the US, my dad naturalized in 1996. So I was born a US citizens. My father was the one who filed for my green card, so immigration have all of the documents because my dad sent them to them when filing for my green card. But when I tried filing for the N600 they asked for me to send them a copy of them. I don’t have them, now I do know what to do. Can someone give me some advice please. Thank you!

Hello, My mom just recently got through naturalization process and became US citizen and my mom wants me to also be US citizen so we filled for N-600 but it’s too expensive and I’m wondering if I can get US passport through my mom who became US citizen?

Hello Jim,
Thank you for this information. I have two questions, please help me.
1) part 2#14B of form N600. Since our family came to the U.S several years ago, we have travelled multiple times back to our home country. We have renewed passports up to 4 times. So the question asked to provide information about what document you presented to enter the United States, passport number, port of entry and date of issuance of passport, is this talking about the child’s first time entering the US? 2) Is the date of issuance talking the first passport or the one most recently travelled one? Thanks for your help.

My mom married my US citizen dad in 2014 and my dad adopted me in 2016, 2 months before I turned 18 in American Samoa. I’m 24 and married now. Can I still file?
Hello and thanks for commenting. You can join the Immigration Answers Show and ask your questions there, or send us an email to info@hackingimmigrationlaw.com and one of our team members will let you know if we can help you with your case.
Because he adopted you before your 18th birthday you automatically became a U.S. citizen. You can file n-600 to get your certificate which will be your certificate of naturalizationship.
Please be careful accepting answers in the comment section. Adoptions must be concluded before the child reaches the age of 16, not 18, with some exceptions (adopting siblings one of which is older than 15).
Question: am a U.S. citizen I got my passport when I was 14 but I didn’t file for the n600,
Is the USA passport enough evidence to bring my wife and kids to the us.

Yes. All you need to file for their petition is proof that you are a U.S. citizen, and with your USA passport you would prove that. All you need to do is submit a copy of your passport as evidence of us citizenship. I’m available to help if anything ! Best of luck
@@INMIGRACIONYMAS I n 600 was denied cause I was locked up and couldn't show for my oath after they had already approved it lol cause I had all the evidence proving my mother became citizen before my 18th bday , can I derived it from her still via a us passport
Yes. You can.
Thave a question. I just became citizen applying through USCIS account and now started trying to apply N-600 for my kids. The website says kids under age 14 cannot have USCIS account and have to do from parents' account. When I do that, all the information asked is of me and not of my kids. When I put in their DOB, it won't accept it coz the account is already been associated with my account when I applied for myself earlier. How do you apply N-600 for kids under 14 years old through parents' USCIS account?

My minor child has born in United States
We got citizenship through naturalization
Do I need to file N 600my minor child as she is born in United States ?
Hello and thanks for commenting. You can join the Immigration Answers Show and ask your questions there, Jim will be glad to advise.
Since your child was born in the US then you do not have to file a n-600 as she already has a birth certificate which is proof of US citizenship and can be used to get a passport.
@@michaelhorgan9525 thanks for reply
@@HackingImmigrationLawLLC thanks for the reply
No , your child is a US citizen since they were born here, the birth certificate is the strongest form of a US citizenship
Hello I have a question . I fall under the child citizenship act . And in fact became a citizen under my mom once she did her naturalization. But she never filed a N600 form .

Hello Jim thanks for this information, I do have a question, I recently brought my son from Nicaragua using the form I-134A, I was wondering, do I need to file an I-130 and then the I-485 and until then the N-600, or can I just go straight to the N-600? I became a US Citizen in 2021 and I brought my child in 2023, he's is 9 years old. Thanks in advance

If I change my name from India legally and if my birth certificate cannot be updated to the new name here then will it affect my application for citizenship, PR, or work permit. My passport would get updated to my new name, it is just that my country doesn't allow me to update my birth certificate.

@@HackingImmigrationLawLLC Alright, thanks.
At my age I’m way past 18 my mom always told me that but she never told me how to go about doing this and I’m way past 18 what can I do or is it too late?
If you are a US citizen, you can file an N-600 when you are over 18. That is not a problem. Jim
Please get your proof of citizenship asap by filing the N-600. If you don't then when you apply for social security you will be denied like I was. Social security wants proof of my citizenship before I can get any benefits!!. They would not accept my adoption papers as proof that I automatically became a US citizen when my stepfather legally adopted my brother and I. I had to pay $1170.00 to file the N-600 in July. I just had my biometrics appt today and that was a joke! I've been told that my application could take another 5 to 9 months because of the USIC back log. In the meantime I don't have the retirement income that I worked all my life for! I also don't have Medicare. You have to be on SS to get Medicare. his whole process has been a nightmare for me!!
I want to add that back in the day when I was adopted all my mother had to do was fill out a simple form that cost $5.00. But she didn't bother doing that..SS also told me that I could just bring in an American passport as proof of citizenship and that they would accept that.. They literalyl told me to apply for one instead of he N-600 as it would be faster and cheaper for me. So, I did that. It was $300.00 and it was denied because I didn't submit proof of my citizenship with the application. Seriously, nobody knows what they're doing!

im 20 years old, my dad and mom were both citizen way before I turned 18 years old. I become a permanent resident at the age of 10. I'm confused help me, should I file for N-600 or N400. Thanks
You would need to file for n-600 if they naturalized before the age of 18 on or after the year 2000. You can also apply for a us passport as well if you provide the right documentation.
@@michaelhorgan9525 No I wasn't Naturalized neither did I apply for naturalization certificate. Can still File N-600
@@muhammadabdullahi3312 Yes you should be able to file a N-600 as once your parents became US citizens you yourself became a citizen due to the Child Citizenship Act of 2000. Though I still recommend you go get a US Passport alongside your N-600 as that can give you a proof of citizenship while your N-600 is being processed.
@@michaelhorgan9525 How can I get US passport while I don't have Neutralization certificate. I only have Permanent resident Card?
@@muhammadabdullahi3312 Only children residing in the United States are eligible to automatically acquire U.S. citizenship under Section 320 of the Immigration and Nationality Act. If your child automatically acquired U.S. citizenship, you may apply for the child's certificate of citizenship from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) or apply for a U.S. passport. If your child has not obtained a certificate of citizenship, you will need to present the following when applying for your child's U.S. passport:
Proof of the child’s relationship to the U.S. citizen parent. For the biological child of a U.S. citizen, this generally will be a certified copy of the foreign birth certificate (and a translation if the birth certificate is not in English). For an adopted child, you must submit a certified copy of the final adoption decree (and a translation if the decree is not in English);
Proof the child is admitted as a lawful permanent resident, such as the child’s foreign passport with a I-551 stamp, or the child's permanent resident card (green card);
Proof of identity and citizenship of the U.S. citizen parent(s);
Evidence the child is residing in the United States in the legal and physical custody of the U.S. citizen parent;
Completed Form DS-11 and supporting documents.
If your child obtained a certificate of citizenship from USCIS, you must submit it with your child’s passport application as proof of citizenship.
This is what the state department says. Even if this is for kids it can still apply if they naturalized before you turned 18. I also recommend getting a book and card as you can use the card for things like updating your Social Security status. Translations of documents if not in English need to be certified and physical copies along with photocopies are ideal. Make multiple copies of everything. This works if you have not yet applied for N-600.
For proof of US custody you can use marriage certificate (translation needed if not in English), US school records and so on.
