Pathways to U.S. Citizenship
If you were born in the United States, you are automatically a U.S. citizen. For those born outside the U.S., there are several pathways to citizenship through the naturalization process.
You may be eligible to apply for U.S. citizenship if you are the child or spouse of a U.S. citizen, a member of the U.S. military, or if you’ve been a lawful permanent resident for three to five years. Each pathway has its own set of requirements, and our team is ready to help you determine the best option for your situation, ensuring you understand each step of the process.
Citizenship Requirements
In general, if you are seeking U.S. citizenship, you must:
- Be 18 or older
- Have lived continuously in the U.S. as a lawful permanent resident for at least five years (the period is three years if you are married to a U.S. citizen)
- Be a resident of the state or U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (U.S.C.I.S.) district where you want to apply
- Speak and write basic English and pass a U.S. civics test
- Demonstrate that you are of “good moral character”
- Register with the U.S. Selective Service (only applicable to men between ages 18 and 26)
- Swear your allegiance to the U.S.
The Naturalization Process
Becoming a U.S. citizen through naturalization can be complex and involves multiple steps. Fortunately, you do not have to go through it alone. Our experienced team can guide you through each stage, making certain you can take each step toward becoming a citizen with complete confidence.
Generally, naturalization involves the following:
- Eligibility verification: Before beginning the naturalization process, it is important to confirm that you meet all the requirements for citizenship. Our lawyers can assess your eligibility and advise you on the best course of action.
- Filing Form N-400: The next step is to file your application for naturalization, known as Form N-400. This form requires extensive information about your background, including biographical information, employment and travel history, and criminal record.
- Biometrics appointment: After submitting your application, you must attend a biometrics appointment where your fingerprints, photo, and signature will be taken.
- Interview and civics test: If your application is approved, you will be scheduled for a U.S.C.I.S. interview. You will also arrange to take a U.S. civics test that assesses your knowledge of U.S. history and government
- Oath of allegiance: Upon passing the civics test and meeting all other requirements, you will take the oath of allegiance in a ceremony to become a citizen.
