It depends on when your diocese has chosen to celebrate the sacrament of Confirmation. In the United States, Confirmation can be celebrated anywhere between the age of reason (7 yrs) and age 16.

But, if your diocese celebrates Confirmation in the eighth grade, then it would come after First Communion.
What helps celebrate the unity of the Sacraments of Initiation?
Catholic AnswerThe Sacraments of Initiation, baptism, confirmation, and Holy Eucharist, are normally received all at once except in the case of infants in the Western Church. In the Eastern Church, these sacraments are all received by an infant, at the same time: the priest confirms the infant immediately after Baptism, and then gives Holy Communion. In the Western Church, the three sacraments are still received together by adults coming into the Church at the Easter Vigil. Those who are not baptized, are baptized, then confirmed, then, later in the Mass, receive their first Holy Communion. Is in only in the case of infants in the Western Church where the sacraments of initiation have been set apart and are usually given Baptism, First Communion, Confirmation, - in that order.

What are the requirements of the Sacrament of Confirmation?
Roman Catholic AnswerYou must be a baptized Catholic. You should have made your First Holy Communion. There are some eastern Rites that Baptize and Confirm infants at the same time and immediately give them Holy Communion, I'm discussing Latin Rite Catholics here. Finally, you should be of an age where you choose to be confirmed, have been instructed sufficiently in the faith, and have recently made a good confession. If you receive the sacrament when you are in a state of mortal sin, you do not receive the grace of the sacrament. It is still given, but the grace will not be there while you are in a state of sin.
