How can I file for my daughter’s citizenship?

Your question requires an attorney consultation. It is not a simple question that can be answered on this type of forum. There are many factors that would need to be considered and evaluated. I strongly suggest that you contact an experienced immigration attorney for a face-to-face consultation and give him/her all of the facts surrounding your situation. He/she would then be in a better position to analyze your case and advise you of your options.

If you were a US citizen at the time she was born and you had registered her with the US Embassy in Mexico, you can get a US passport for her. Otherwise, you will either need to establish that the child derived US citizenship at birth or petition on behalf of the child now.

If you have been a citizen for 5 years before her birth and meet certain other requirements, your daughter is a citizen also. Consult with an attorney.

You must first file an I-130 visa petition with supporting documents. Once approved the file will go to the National Visa Center and they will provide further instructions.
