Naturalization is the process where U.S. citizenship is given to a foreign citizen after they have fulfilled the requirements established by the Immigration and Nationality Act of INA. While the process may seem fairly straightforward, it is actually a very complex legal matter that should always be handed by an attorney.

Are You Eligible for Naturalization?

Before you can apply, you must meet strict requirements. An application for naturalization will automatically be denied if you do not meet the proper requirements, which include:
* You must be at least 18 years or older when you file.
You must be a permanent resident (Green card) for a minimum of five years.
*You must be able to prove that you have lived for at least three months in the state or a specified USCIS district.
