Eligibility Criteria for U.S. Citizenship
Naturalization is the process of becoming a U.S. citizen. An individual born in another country may be granted citizenship after he or she fulfills the requirements of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA).
You may qualify for naturalization if you meet all eligibility requirements and have:
- At least 5 years of permanent residency, 3 years of permanent residency and be married to a U.S. citizen; or qualifying service in the U.S. armed forces
- Good Moral Character
- Physical presence in the United States for the last 3-5 years
- Speak conversational English (some exceptions apply)
- Pass. small civics exam
Even if you meet the above requirements, there are factors that can result in a denial. This includes arrests and excessive time spent outside the United States. Due to the requirements and possible disqualifying factors, it is important to speak with our Dallas immigration attorneys to verify your eligibility prior to starting the process.
The U.S. Naturalization Test
Part of the Naturalization interview includes a short civics test. There are 100 questions that must be learned for this test. Of those 100 questions they will ask you 10 of them and you will need to answer 6 of them correctly. Because we don’t know which questions they will ask, it is important to learn all 100. We will help you with that. In some situations, people can apply for a waiver or exemption.
The team at Christensen Immigration Attorneys prepares all the legal packets, prepares the client for the interview and will attend the interview to make sure everything goes smoothly. We want to make sure you pass! Give us a call today and let’s make you a citizen.
