US Immigration from Philippines

Stepson has:

• his original Philippines birth certificate
• his biological mother's Certificate of Naturalization (oath ceremony was 2 weeks ago)
• his green card (expiration date on card is 2026, but I failed to update his green card on his 14th birthday - and that seems to have been a big mistake because State of Ohio DMV will not allow him to use this non-updated green card to get any form of state issued ID card)
• his Social Security card
• and his expired Philippines passport that includes his K2 entry Visa and stamps (the US Passport officer had no value for his expired Philippines passport)

We had his 2x2" pictures and his DS-11 prepared, but the US Passport officer was very brief with us.

It looks like we will need to apply for his N-600, but the 13-month processing time hurts. He turns 17 in October, and it looks like he will be almost 18 years old before we can get his driving learner's permit.

Does anyone have any experience or suggestion on how we can get this done sooner?

Renewal of the green card seems to be off the table now that he has derived US citizenship through his mom's naturalization. Should we consider applying for a new Philippines Passport? Does he even qualify for a Philippines Passport now that he has derived US citizenship?

I will go forward with his N-600 right away, but will also keep searching for ways to get his US passport during the interim.

Thanks for reading my post. Feedback will be appreciated.

Has anybody had their fiance fly over to the US once the K-1 was issued with an infant baby?

Any experiences you would like to share or tips? I can't imagine doing the trip with a baby and no other help.

The route would be Cebu City to LAX or SFO.

Thanks

I need some help/guidance. My wife received her approved IR/CR-1 visa at the U.S. Embassy in Manila and arrived here in Hawaii in Jan 2021. She has a 17 year old son that she now want to bring here to join her. I contacted NVC and they indicated that since my wife has already been issued a visa from the Embassy in Manila (and now has her 10-year green card), then the follow-on request would need to be sent to the US Embassy in Manila.

Does anybody know what forms and/or procedures that need to be followed in requesting a Follow-On To Join from the U.S. Embassy in Manila? I have tried calling and sending the Embassy e-mails, but no response from them. Any help is very much appreciated.
