N-600 For Child

[marixa 1]

My husband asks. Is it possible to fill the Son N-600 form if my son not born in America. My husband became an American citizen when our son was one year old? (currently my son two year old).

Sorry for poor English skills

Yes, if your child is a citizen. (p.s. The N-600 can only be filed if not born in the America -- there would be no need to get an N-600 if the child was born in the U.S.)

You need to give more information to determine if your son is a citizen. i.e. What status is your son? Where is he living? Did your son live with hour husband in the U.S. when he became a U.S. citizen or anytime after?

Also, even if your son is a U.S. citizen, it is not absolutely necessary to get an N-600. He can simply apply for a U.S. passport at any time.

If your husband's name is on the birth certificate and your son is in the US with a green card then yes your son is a US citizen the day your husband became a citizen.. If your husband's name is not on the birth certificate but your son has a green card, then when you become American he becomes American as well automatically.

If your son doesn't have a green card at all then he cannot become a citizen until you apply for his green card then you can apply for his passport.

If your son was born in the US then he is a citizen automatically. Good luck.
