Hi

I am going for my citizenship mid January 2013.

While a permanent resident I petitioned for my eldest son to join us in America. Once I have citizenship, what must I do to expedite his application?

Thanks for your very kind consideration and assistance!

After you get naturalized you can either call USCIS customer service and tell them to update your case status since you became USC or you can directly email the service center where your application is currently pending. Sometimes the service centers will ask you to fax them your citizenship certificate. Good luck with your Journey on Naturalization.
