Can a child with citizenship apply for parents for citizenship?

Answer:
No. The parents have to go through the normal channels for citizenship with the INS.


Another view:

A child can sponsor green cards for the parents if the child is a US citizen above 21 years of age. The parents then have to be permanent residents (green card holders) for 5 years and meet other eligibility requirements before they can file a citizenship application.
