    EminTX you really need to do some research before posting misinformation. Your post really does not answer the question at all. I looked at the US Passport application form and it clearly states that your foreign birth certificate and the naturalization certificate of your parent is sufficient to prove citizenship provided that you were lawfully admitted for permanent residence.
    The child must have at least one U.S. citizen parent by birth or naturalization, be under 18 years of age (have been born on or after February 27, 1983), live in the legal and physical custody of the U.S. citizen parent, and be admitted as an immigrant for lawful permanent residence. In addition, if the child is adopted, the adoption must be full and final.
    So that means a Certificate of Citizenship is not required however it would a good idea to have this in the future. After you have received your initial passport you may use this as your proof of citizenship. Keep in mind that the parent must be naturalized before the child turns 18. Otherwise they would have to wait the usual 5 years and apply for naturalization themselves.

    You just keep going off on an a tangent stating the obvious. No one ever claimed that non-citizens are eligible for passports. Again, that was not the question. From the original post they are asking about certificate of citizenship. This is for an individual to document U.S. citizenship status based on citizen parentage. It is convenient to have this as you would not have to rely on your parents naturalization certificate in the future. If the child is under 18 and a permanent resident, they would be considered a citizen if their parent is naturalized (Child Citizenship Act of 2000)
    If it 'sounds' like the daughter is a citizen of Peru, so what? That has no bearing on whether the daughter is considered a citizen according to US law. Incidentally Peru allows dual citizenship so this is likewise a non-issue. Lastly, you continue to state the obvious about birthright citizenship. What is your point? This again has nothing to do with the question asked.
