If you have children under the age of 18 and you become a naturalized citizen, as long as those children are under 18 years old the day of your naturalization, they will also become citizens.
Once this derivative citizenship happens, you should file an N-600 to re-iterate to USCIS that your children are now citizens and take away the confusion.

@@funhouse1077 If your kids are in Mexico, USCIS has no jurisdiction over them. Before they turn 18, please go to the US Embassy in Mexico and do a CRBA. It will work like their US Birth Certificate. If your kids are not in the US, they are not a US Citizen via CCA2000 because one of the clause states they have to be "legal and physical custody" of the US parent and entered US as a LPR.

Thank you for this video. Inmigration laws are complicated, I agree that although a passport is valid proof of nationality, a certificate of naturalization is the definitive proof. Also as Mr. Hacking stated in the video for any paperwork /petition involving the USCIS a certificate of naturalization is required.

Inaccurate information. I am the actual derived citizen without a Certificate of Citizenship and I was able to file a petition for my spouse WITH only my US Passport. Unless it is revoked or cancelled, the US Passport is a conclusive proof of US Citizenship. At the end of the day, if Mr. Hacking shows his US Passport, do you think USCIS even has any authority over him? The exact same US Passport without limit is awarded to both US born, or naturalized/derived citizen and it shall have the same exact power, or someone is discriminating. As far as Social Security is concerned, US Passport is the preferred proof. I visited the Social Security office today and confirmed it. If they cross reference and gets ok from Department of State, they DON'T EVEN ask for a Certificate of Naturalization.

The officer who interviewed me said that getting a passport alone is enough proof of the kid's citizenship and doesn't need n600 application anymore if I opt to getting a US passport. So do you mean if he doesn't do the n600 and he wants to marry overseas in the future, the passport won't be valid as proof of his citizenship and cannot petition someone?

The child grew up in the US & went to US schools & graduated as well & has never left now in the 50's. What does that child now an adult need to obtain citizenship or does the citizenship automatically get passed down from the father?

@@um8440 that’s great news! Congratulations! My step-brother automatically became a US citizen when my stepmother became naturalized as well. He joined the Marines, but couldn’t advance because he couldn’t get the security clearance due to having dual Hungarian/United States citizenship. We are originally from the country of Hungary which does not allow us to renounce our citizenship, so legally we have to keep dual citizenship with Hungary and the United States. In order to advance in the military you have to be 100% United States citizen. I’m sure I was technically already a US citizen as well, but like I said I didn’t have any paperwork from my mother so I didn’t want to risk it. I just applied to become a US citizen, took the civics test, did the interview and became naturalized on my own.

Thanks for making this video. I am interested in asking about your services and whether you have done a case successfully like mine. I'm a US citizen and have been for decades. I live and work outside the US. My child was born abroad. I needed to show evidence of 5 years lived in the U.S. I only have proof of 4.5 years. I'm short by 5 months. I want to ask whether (1.) I can move back to the US and live and work there for 5 months and then apply again from abroad? Or (2). If I should bring my family to the US with me on a tourist visa and start living and working here and then applying right away as a permanent resident in the US. If option (2.) is doable, please tell me how can I apply for my daughter's citizenship/passport here? I was told she is entitled to a passport right away. However no one can tell me what forms to apply and where/how to submit them. Additionally what documents / ID I have to submit. If you know please do tell me. Also how much are the total fees? Any idea how long the process for forms to be processed? Lastly, if your firm can also do this in Florida, how much would you charge me. Thank you.

Hello, I have a similar question as yours. But I believe that I do have proof of living in the us at least for 5 years not continiously but I have lived in America for at least 7 years. Here was my original problem and thr question that I asked earlier today, do you mind letting me know if you have information on how to file the form by yourself or if you had to get an attourney? Here was my original question .......I am so confused, I need some advice. I am an American citizen, I lived in the us since I was 11 years old until 15 years old, I went from 5th grade to 9th grade while living in the us. My parents decided to move to Mexico but my dad would still drive me to school daily in san diego. Eventually I graduated high school and moved to Los Angeles. I worked for 4 years in Los Angeles and moved back to Mexico after that. After a few years went I back to Los Angeles and worked there for 2 years and again went back to mexico to live with my girlfriend who at the time was pregnant. I had my first child 4 years ago and then another child two years ago. My kids are 2 and 4 years old, they live in Mexico and I live with them, I was born in California and currently work In San Diego, I drive back and forth daily. I want to get citizenship for my kids who were born abroad, but currently have no intentions to live in America. Can I fill out an N600 form myself to ask for their citizenship? Me and my wife are not married yet, but we have lived together since our first child was born.

@@funhouse1077 Hey, your case is easy - You file the circular birth announcement at the Consulate in Mexico. You just need proof which will be your old transcripts, job letters and apartment lease. Any bank accounts and medical docs etc will also help. You don't need a lawyer. Its straight forward for you. just show proof in USA. Your school records there etc as mentioned above. Go online to your local consulate and set the appointment. take your old passports, and driver's license as well as your transcripts etc..

I became a naturalized Citizen in 2006 when my daughter was 4. Fast forward to 2020 my daughter was supposed to have her IR2 visa interview on April 23rd and travel to the US before her 18th birthday on May 23rd. Due to the COVID-19 the embassy rescheduled my daughter interview beyond her 18th birthday. Will my daughter still benefit for automatic citizenship under the the child citizenship act of 2000?

I was born here in the Philippines and is still here. I was planning to go to the US this May. But with this COVID situation I'm not leaving until everything is safe. So if that time comes for me to go to the US. Will the US Immigration ask for a Certificate of citizenship from me?

Makeup your mind. You can't include the word "automatically" become a U.S citizen and then add the following statement, that you have to fill out paperwork. Its one or the other, but lets say hypothetically, if both parents are "naturalized citizens" of the U.S. and the child is at the age that qualifies him/her to gain American citizenship through, I believe the term is "Derivations" or to Derive Citizenship, would it not be illegal and unlawful to deport said person? Technically? I mean I'm confused. If both my parents are naturalized citizens and in turn makes me an American citizen how can ICE even get the ball rolling to begin with to detain and deport the person? I'm sure white Americans don't have this issue, I can bet my LIFE on it. It boggles my mind. These are my parents, both U.S citizens and I am their child which would make me a citizen also ....simple right? What is there to prove? ....aahh its the color of my skin that's the problem.
