Welcome to our

Migration and Refugee Services

where we provide information about the citizenship and naturalization process for migrants. We understand that becoming a citizen can be a complex process, but we are here to guide you through every step of the way.

To become a citizen of the United States, there are certain requirements that you must meet. First and foremost, you must be a lawful permanent resident, also known as a green card holder, for a certain period of time. The length of time that you must have held your green card varies depending on your individual situation. Generally, you must have been a green card holder for at least five years before you can apply for citizenship, or three years if you are married to a U.S. citizen.

In addition to meeting the residency requirement, you must also be able to read, write, speak, and understand basic English. This requirement is designed to ensure that new citizens are able to fully participate in American society and understand their rights and responsibilities as citizens. There is also a civics test that you must pass, which covers topics such as U.S. history, government, and geography.

To begin the citizenship process, you will need to complete and file Form N-400, Application for Naturalization, with U.S. Citizenship and Migration Services (USCIS). Along with your application, you will need to submit supporting documents such as your green card, passport, and any other required documentation.

Once your application is received, you will be scheduled for biometrics (fingerprinting and photographing) and an interview with a USCIS officer. During the interview, the officer will review your application and ask you questions about your background, your English and civics knowledge, and your eligibility for citizenship. If your application is approved, you will be scheduled for a naturalization ceremony, where you will take the Oath of Allegiance and officially become a U.S. citizen.

We understand that the citizenship process can be intimidating, but we are here to help. Our website provides a wealth of information about the requirements, application process, and timeline for citizenship. We also offer resources and support to help you prepare for the English and civics tests, and we can connect you with qualified Migration attorneys if needed.

We look forward to helping you achieve your dream of becoming a U.S. citizen.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a green card, and how do I apply for one?

A green card is a document that proves you are a lawful permanent resident of the US. You can apply for a green card through various channels, such as through family members who are US citizens or through an employer who sponsors you. You can also apply for a green card through the Diversity Visa Lottery program, which is designed to promote diversity in the US by granting visas to people from countries with historically low rates of Migration to the US.

What kind of visa do I need to work in the US?

The type of visa you need to work in the US depends on your specific situation. For example, if you are coming to the US to work for a US-based employer, you may need an H-1B visa, which is a temporary work visa for skilled workers. If you are an entrepreneur starting a business in the US, you may be eligible for an E-2 visa, which is a treaty investor visa.

How can I become a US citizen?

To become a US citizen, you must first become a lawful permanent resident (i.e., have a green card) and meet other requirements, such as being a resident of the US for a certain amount of time. You can then apply for naturalization by submitting Form N-400, Application for Naturalization, and attending an interview with a USCIS officer.

What kind of services are available to refugees once they arrive in the US?

Once refugees arrive in the US, they may be eligible for a variety of services, such as housing assistance, job training, and language classes. These services are often provided by nonprofit organizations, such as resettlement agencies and community-based organizations, as well as government agencies, such as the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR).

What is naturalization?

Naturalization is the process by which a foreign citizen becomes a US citizen. It requires meeting certain eligibility requirements and completing an application process.

What are the eligibility requirements for naturalization?

To be eligible for naturalization, you must be at least 18 years old, have been a lawful permanent resident (i.e., have a green card) for at least 5 years (or 3 years if you are married to a US citizen), be able to speak, read, and write basic English, and pass a civics test.

How do I apply for naturalization?

You can apply for naturalization by submitting Form N-400, Application for Naturalization, to US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). The form requires providing personal and biographical information, as well as evidence of your eligibility for naturalization.

How long does the naturalization process take?

The naturalization process can take several months to a year or more, depending on the specific circumstances of your case and the workload of USCIS. You can check the current processing times on the USCIS website.

What happens after I submit my naturalization application?

After you submit your naturalization application, USCIS will review it to make sure you meet the eligibility requirements. You will then be scheduled for an interview with a USCIS officer, during which you will be asked questions about your application and your background. You will also be required to take the civics test and demonstrate your ability to speak, read, and write basic English.

What happens if my naturalization application is denied?

If your naturalization application is denied, you may be able to appeal the decision or reapply for naturalization. You should consult with an immigration attorney to determine the best course of action.

What are the benefits of naturalization?

Naturalization grants several benefits, including the right to vote in US elections, the ability to travel with a US passport, the ability to petition for family members to immigrate to the US, and protection from deportation.
