Our son will enter the US on a IR-2 visa having met the 2 year requirement so his citizenship is automatic. There is no I-485 (change of status) or I-864 (Affidavit of support) required. I could not find any reference anywhere where IR-2's are to apply for the COC or if it is automaticlly sent the way IR-3's are in the 45 days. Anyone know the answer to this?

Update: I waited the 20 mins. on hold to inquire using the USCIS 800 number and asked the question. The processor had to ask a supervisor or look it up which took an additional 5 mins. but came she came back with the answer. Apparently IR-2 Visas that have qualified for Automatic Citizenship will also receive the COC upon entry to the US the same as IR-3 Visas so there is no need to apply for one. This takes 45 days or so.....
