You appear to already be a US citizen as you obtained a US passport before the age of 18. Unless there was a mistake by the US passport agency, you fulfilled all requirements for US citizenship at that time. There appears to be no need for you to obtain a certificate of citizenship as the US passport is equal proof of your citizenship. There is also the chance that if the passport agency made an error, U.S.C.I.S. might catch it to your detriment.Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.
