What is Naturalization?
Naturalization is the legal process through which a foreign citizen or national can become a U.S. citizen. Administered by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), formerly known as the Immigration and Naturalization Service, this process is essential for those seeking to fully integrate into American society. Achieving citizenship by naturalization comes with numerous benefits, including the right to vote, eligibility for federal jobs, and the ability to sponsor family members for immigration.
Are You Eligible for Naturalization?
To qualify for naturalization, you must meet specific criteria set by USCIS. These include:
- Being at least 18 years old
- Being a lawful permanent resident (green card holder) for at least 5 years (or 3 years if married to a U.S. citizen)
- Demonstrating continuous residence in the U.S.
- Showing good moral character
- Passing an English and U.S. history and government test
If you’re unsure about your eligibility, our naturalization attorney can help you assess your qualifications and guide you through the process of preparing a strong application.
The Naturalization Process
The path to U.S. citizenship involves several key steps:
- Determining your current citizenship status
- Determining if you meet the eligibility requirements
- Filling out a Form N-400
- Facilitating payment of the form N-400 and biometrics fee or discussing alternatives
- Participating in the biometrics appointment
- Participating in the interview and U.S. citizenship test
- Coordinating the N-400 final decision, including approval, continuation, or denial
- Assisting with the oath of allegiance notice questionnaire
- Assisting and attending the naturalization ceremony
- Completing final needs, such as registering to vote, updating your social security record, and more
Our immigration and naturalization services include assistance with each of these steps, from filing the initial application to preparing you for the citizenship interview. When you apply for naturalization, your application is processed by USCIS, the successor to the Immigration and Naturalization Service. Our team ensures that all documentation is accurate and submitted on time, increasing your chances of a successful outcome. Here is our detailed case preparation process
