N 600
Is it necessary to obtain a citizenship certificate by filing N 600 for a minor? It’s quite expensive. Isn’t a passport enough for all purposes? What are the specific cases where a citizenship certificate is required? I have heard for college admissions we may need it. Can anyone explain. Thank you.

I thought my spouse had a citizenship certificate when he got it through his dad as a minor but I just used his US passport as proof , that worked .

Thanks. So there’s no need at to file N 600.

passport alone may not be accepted as proof of citizenship.
so it would be good to apply for his certificate

What does your minor child has now? naturalization certificate or GC? if he or she has a passport what documents did you use to get it?

only GC

will apply for passport. but since N 600 costs $1500 was trying to understand if it’s actually required.

I think your minor has only GC and you’re now a citizen, you have to file N600 and get him certificate of citizenship before you can get passport.

interesting. Didn’t know that. I thought he becomes citizen automatically
