Naturalization

U.S. Legal Permanent Residents may elect to become U.S. Citizens and naturalize. This process allows eligible green card holders to apply for naturalization and undergo testing and an interview before swearing-in as a U.S. Citizen. We have assisted many people to reach their goal of U.S. Citizenship. Call or email with any questions you have. We are always happy to let you speak directly with an immigration lawyer.

Must be a resident continuously for 5 years (3 years if LPR status gained through marriage to a U.S. citizen and waived in some battery cases);
Must have resided for 90 days in the state where the petition was filed;
Must be physically present in the U.S.
