Update: My original Naturalization Certificate has now been returned. That is 16 weeks from delivery of US Passport. For those with CBP Trusted Traveler memberships (GE, TSAPC, Nexus) if you want to change your citizenship information, I recommend you do that immediately and do not travel overseas without the new card in your possession, I just went through hoops with CBP returning into the US after I lined up in Trusted Traveler counter and they found my card inactive due to the change in information I filed before leaving the US. Thanks again everyone for your insights and thoughts about our prior situation. Cheers, GAPS

Thank you for this information. I will contact my passport processing center as indicated in the website. Cheers, G&A

Excellent idea 😀 I just did that with Patty Murray. Do you think I should write to the other one as well? We all get two US senators to ask for help. Have you had any experience getting help from them with your immigration issues with federal agencies? Thanks again.

I don't know about you but to apply for a US passport as a naturalized citizen you have to submit the original Certificate of Naturalization together with your application form. Thanks for your comment, I'd welcome a more helpful one though. So thanks, but no thanks.

Hello everyone, I would like to get your suggestion on what I can do to follow up the return of my original Certificate of Naturalization from the State Department. I received my passport last March 2023 and now it has been 2 months since and there is no sign of the CON in the mail whatsoever. I think we deserve to have our original CON document back not only for all the financial resources we had to invest to obtain it but also its value and importance as the culmination of our long and significant journey and proof of our commitment to the United States . I wrote to NPIC@state.gov and the reply I got is: Thank you for contacting the National Passport Information Center. All the information you need about current passport operations and services is conveniently located on our website at travel.state.gov. Note: If you are sending this e-mail to cancel your appointment at a passport agency, we will cancel it immediately. Thank you for making it available to another customer. This is the only reply you will receive to your email. It's almost unbelievable to note the absurdity of their auto-reply. Not very helpful at all. Any suggestions will be gratefully appreciated. Cheers, G&A

I received my passport in March 2023 and I still have not received back my Naturalization Certificate. Is there any way to find out where it is?
