Do you have to apply for the N-600 for minor children or is it optional? In other words, can we just get them passports to show they are citizens?

Thanks.

I filed both for each of my children. It is quite expensive, though. $600 for the N600 for each of the minor child.

There are some threads/discussions here on the pros/cons of filing for the N600. I checked them out and then decided that it is better for them to have the certificate.

I suggest you go through the threads, and then see which one works for your situation.

Good luck!!

Hi, yes we filed an N-600. It took a little over 3 months to receive the COC, so not very long. I believe (but not certain) that you would file an n-600K if living abroad. But again I'm not certain, others on the forum probably will be able to answer your question. Are you preparing to file an n-600 application? Best of luck. I'm usually not on the forum much at all anymore but the forum can be a wonderful resource for information. Have a good day!

Hi All,

Thank you for your posts.

I'm planning to file for n-600 for my child who is a minor. I have a question regarding that.

Do I need to send a copy of my birth certificate, marriage certificate along with all the needed documents with the n-600 application?

Please help.

Appreciate all your help.

Thanks.

Forgive me if I misunderstand your question, but aren't the birth and marriage certificates of the US citizen parent applying for N-600 on behalf of a minor child, part of "the needed documents" for an N-600 application?

Thank you, Shub.

Yes, that is what I thought. But still had doubt regarding the birth certificate since some of the posts that I saw had no mention of either the marriage certificate or the birth certificate.

Anyway just to be sure I will attach those documents too.

Thanks again.

And also... Do we have to submit both parents' birth certificate along with N-600?

Thank you.

Sorry, don't know about that! I probably would do it anyway but I don't know if it's necessary. Don't see why it would hurt though.
