Become A U.S. Citizen

The U.S. immigration naturalization law is a legal procedure for foreign nationals to become U.S. Citizens once they reach certain criteria. Once you have successfully gone through the process and have become a U.S. citizen, you will enjoy benefits such as the right to vote, bringing family members to the U.S., and more.

How does getting naturalization work?

Naturalization is the process by which U.S. citizenship is granted to a foreign citizen or national. There are several ways this can be accomplished.

  • Most commonly, once a person has held permanent residency for at least 5 years and meets all other eligibility requirements, he may naturalize.

  • If the person is married to a U.S. citizen, then he may naturalize after 3 years or more of permanent residency.

  • Having served in the U.S. armed forces provides additional routes to naturalization.
