Special counsel David Weiss made the disclosure in a filing to a Delaware federal court Wednesday.
Weiss, the top federal prosecutor in Delaware since 2018, has been investigating Hunter Biden since 2019.
The president said he and the first lady "only want what is best for all of our grandchildren, including Navy."

An IRS whistleblower in the Hunter Biden investigation told CBS News he was blocked from pursuing leads that he thought might implicate Joe Biden. He testifies at a House hearing Wednesday.
Court filings unsealed earlier this month showed Weiss' office charged Biden with two misdemeanor tax counts and a felony gun charge.

They say they were told by a whistleblower that an FBI document describes the alleged scheme. The White House accuses them of an "unfounded political attack."
The former president's latest unfounded claim of "massive fraud" has left fellow Republicans grappling once again with how to respond.
The FBI investigation into the president's son allegedly has uncovered potential crimes around taxes and gun purchases. An attorney for the president's son called the allegations "biased, one-sided and inaccurate."
Agents months ago gathered what they believe is sufficient evidence to charge the president's son with crimes related to taxes and making a false statement when purchasing a gun, according to sources.
