About six months ago, my 15-year-old son automatically became a U.S. citizen when I naturalized. We then filed an N-600 application, but we are still waiting for his certificate of citizenship to be issued. Is he required to register based on the new alien registration process?

Answer

No, a U.S. citizen is normally not subject to the alien registration requirement. (15.Apr.2025)
