Both my daughters entered USA on iR2 visa, with the elder few months before her 18th birthday. We have been here for 4 years now on Green Card and Im due for my citizenship. We did not apply for the Certificate of Citizenship of our daughters but applied for passports directly. As we did not have Certificates of Citizenship, we sent all other required documents, including their birth certificates but we were sent letters saying they need more proof of birth. we sent more docs, including hospital records but now they are asking for DNA test. Im confused. Doesnt iR12 visa mean my girls were on arrival citizens? what should we do now? any advice?Ive also heard that when the parent gets citizenship, all minors get their Certificates of Citizenship mailed with the parent too. Does this mean that my daughters could get theirs after I get my Citizenship?
