N600 sent, now what?

[louloumarietta 0]

Sent in my daughter's N-600 and received my receipt for payment. What happens next? Is USCIS simply going to mail my daughter's citizenship certificate OR does this involve yet another trip to USCIS?

N-600 based on the naturalization of a parent usually involves Biometrics, Interview, and formal surrendering of Green Card at USCIS, which is why I always suggest to skip the N-600 altogether and just apply for a passport which from thereon serves as proof of US citizenship. The N-600 is really a waste of money and time, ideal only for people who really want that Certificate of Citizenship badly.

This is from another site where this parent just went through it.

"

1. what DO did you file?

Newark NJ

2. What documents they checked at the interview?

They wanted the following: (original and one copy)

1. Green card

2. Picture Id (passport will do)

3. Parents' marriage certificate

4. Parents naturalization certificate(s)

5. Birth certificate

6. 2 passport style photos

3. Did they ask you or checked your passports etc. . for 5 year physical presence in US ? ( Personally I think that is not a requirement for N-600!)

We became citizens (including my son) last year. This is just to get the certificate. He did not looked at the

details in the passport

4. Did they ask any questions to the child?

Very simple like name, you need to sign including your middle name, Are you married (any children) :-)

Which class you are studying etc.

The officer is very nice, very friendly and the best experience we had with INS officers

(others were also fine but they are more serious).

I think N-600 is treated as an easier or lighter case."

Thought my kids were smart, but none of them knew how to sign their name in cursive at 3 years old. Now that has me wondering. Now give them a crayon, and they could go to town with that certificate.
