Kids & Your US Naturalization (N-400)

While your N-400 application can't include your children, they might become US citizens automatically when you naturalize (if under 18 and meet certain requirements).

This is called "derivative citizenship." Requirements can vary, so talk to an immigration attorney!

They can help:

  • See if your children qualify.

  • File any necessary forms (like Form N-600) to document their citizenship.

Get Help! An immigration attorney can ensure your children's citizenship is documented properly.
