Social Security & Kids status after citizenship

[Dave&Kal 26]

Well we know after taking the oath and receiving the certificate of naturalization, our kids of under 18 who have lived with us on legal permanent residents status,  also become citizens automatically as a result. 

 

I was planing to go to Social security office to update our status , but noticed we have nothing to show as a proof of citizenship for the kids! ( we have NOT applied for the passport or N600 yet) and i was under the impression that just having our certificate of naturalizations would be enough to prove our children's citizenship to them, assuming they are aware of the law and since they already have all the family info in their system, there should be no need to even prove the relationship.  So to be on the safe side i called the social security call center and waited for their call back. The representative who called seemed not to be aware of the law and she could not say much! so just suggested we take our certificate of naturalization along with kids green cards to the office and they should be able to update it, but still she was not so sure!

 

I would appreciate if anyone who had a situation like us, to share their experience. Thank you!
