In reference to Eranga's suggestion:

This will not work, static types cannot be used as parameters. As far as I know you cannot override the CreateUser method without writing your own custom provider, then creating a public CreateUser method with your own parameters, then casting the provider to call your method like so:

((MyMembershipProvider)Membership.Provider).CreateUser(/* my parameters */)

You have to create a subclass of the membership provider you use and provide an additional CreateUser method that takes the parameters you require to create the user.

public class MyMembershipProvider : SqlMembershipProvider
{
    public MembershipUser CreateUser(/* your custom arguments*/)
    {

    }
}

Create an extension method to invoke your method.

public static MembershipUser CreateUser(this Membership membership, /* your custom arguments*/)
{
       ((MyMembershipProvider)membership.Provider).CreateUser(/* your custom arguments*/);
}

Then you can use it as an orverload of the CreateUser method.

Membership.CreateUser(/* your custom arguments*/);
