You can apply for a U S passport for her using your citizenship status. Or you can apply just as you did for yourself. The difference is money and if she becomes a citizen by getting a passport she wont have a citizenship certificate.

If you apply for the passport for her make sure you send everything they ask for including your new citizenship certificate.

One parent is enough for the child to get citizenship...in other words your spouse doesn't have to be a U.S citizen in order for your daughter to get her citizenship.

As other posters mentioned you can use your citizenship to apply for her passport. We just did the same for our son. This is what you will need:

1. Passport application

2. One photo

3. Your daughter's green card

4. Her original birth certificate. If not in English then certified translation with original is must

5. Your original marriage cert. if divorced then those papers

6. Your naturalization cert

We applied at the passport agency so I know exactly what they ask.

Hope this helps.

You can try but the lady who was dealing with our applications was ademant to see the original and certified translation. You can try and explain the situation.

By the way I forgot to mention that your wife needs to go there as well. If she cannot go then she needs to sign a consent that she doesn't have any issues with her daughter getting the US passport.

If you are close to a passport agency then I would suggest that you apply in person. This way you will know straight away if the application is accepted.
