If I becamie an American citizen 4 months ago and have 2 children both of whom have greencards, what are the documents I need to apply for their US passports?
They said my children (ages 13 and 15) will be automaticly citizens. Should I bring my certificate and their greencards? What else?

All you will need is your Certificate of Naturalization and their birth certificates and a consent of the other parent to get passports. However, I strongly recommend filing for their Certificates of Citizenship as well, so that the CIS can close their files. No need to wait for those to get the passports though.
