For many immigrants, becoming a U.S. citizen is a lifelong dream. The U.S. citizenship, a symbol of prosperity and opportunity, is available to eligible applicants who meet certain requirements. In this blog post, we will discuss the naturalization process, who is eligible to become a U.S citizen, and how long one needs to be a U.S resident before applying for citizenship. At Kim Jones Law, we understand the challenges faced by immigrants seeking citizenship, and we are ready to assist.
The first step towards becoming a U.S citizen is determining whether you meet the eligibility requirements. Generally, an individual must meet the following criteria:
• Be at least 18 years of age or older.
• Be a lawful permanent resident (Green Card holder).
• Reside continuously in the U.S. for five years or more, or three years if you are married to a U.S citizen.
• Be able to read, write and speak basic English.
• Be of good moral character.
• Pass a civics and history exam.
• Pass a background check.
Once you have determined that you are eligible to apply for U.S citizenship, the next step is to understand the naturalization process. The naturalization process involves several steps, including:
• Filling out Form N-400, Application for Naturalization.
• Submitting the completed form to USCIS.
• Attending a biometrics appointment to have your fingerprints taken.
• Attending an interview with USCIS.
• Taking the civics and history exam.
• Taking an oath of allegiance to the U.S.
The amount of time you need to be a U.S resident before applying for citizenship depends on your individual circumstances. Generally, you need to be a lawful permanent resident (Green Card holder) for at least five years before applying for citizenship. However, if you are married to a U.S citizen, the requirement is reduced to three years.
