Citizenship and Naturalization

Los Angeles Immigration Attorney

An US citizen can enjoy a lot of rights that non citizens get to envy about. Being a citizen of the United States gives you the right to travel whenever you like in any destination, has the right to sponsor any family member who wants to come to United States and the right to vote. If you are a foreigner, you can be a US citizen through the naturalization process which can be done five years after being a permanent resident. However, if you have a relative who has been living in the United States for several years already, the time frame of five years can be reduced to three years.

If you want to apply for naturalization, you should satisfy the following requirements like:

  1. Physical presence in the United States regardless if it is continuous or not
  2. Has a good moral character
  3. Has the ability to write, read and speak English with an exemption of medical reasons
  4. Understand the US history and its form of government

In spite of the applicant’s willingness to be a US citizen, not all of them can satisfy these requirements. In cases when a discrepancy is observed, an immigration lawyer will be there for you. We are available to assist you anytime so dial that phone number and we will be waiting for you on the other end of the line.
