My mother became a us citizen in 1994 at this time I was 15 years old. Now, I'm 29 years old and have been a us resident since 1985. I would like to know if I automatically became a US citizen?

Likely but I need more info.

When you entered US in 1985, what was your status? What kind of visa? etc. When your mother became naturalized, did she put your name as her dependent? Have you ever filed for Certificate to Naturalization? Etc.

1q. I was permanent resident. 2q.yes my mother put me as her dependent. 3q. An no I have never filed for a certificate to naturalization. Thanks... mason b

So this is easy... you have to file form N-600, can be downloaded here: Immigration Forms

You must submit supported documents, see details on instruction part. After you receive the Certificate of Naturalization, you can apply for US passport, always keep the document in safe place... important and expensive. Good luck.
