Citizenship Question for My Daughter

My wife and I just applied for citizenship and included our daughter’s (GC holder) info in our applications. My daughter will turn 18 on May 5th. Do I need to file a separate application for naturalization for her when she turns 18 next month or she will be naturalized automatically once my wife and I get ours approved? Since my wife and I applied for our citizenship before our daughter turned 18, does that count?

Would really appreciate if anyone can shed some light on this for me.
 
If either you or your wife becomes a U.S. citizen (which happens when you take the oath) before your daughter turns 18, then she will automatically be a U.S. citizen. From what you described, that seems unlikely.

Otherwise, she can apply for naturalization herself after she turns 18.
