Hi I just got here in the US 3 weeks ago through my IR-2 visa with an annotation " UPON ENDORSEMENT SERVES AS TEMPORARY I-551 EVIDENCING PERMANENT RESIDENCE FOR 1 YEAR. . I'm 17 years old turning 18 in a couple of days and my dad was naturalized when I was 15 y/o. We were supposed to apply for a passport but my dad lost his naturalization certificate so we're still gonna have to wait 5-8 months to get it. I just have a couple of questions:
1.) What is my status here in the United States?
2.) Do I need to apply for a green card?
3.) Did I already become a citizen when I got here?
4.) Am I still going to be eligible to apply for a passport even after I turn 18?
