The first step towards citizenship is obtaining a green card, which grants you permanent residency in the U.S. Once you have held your green card for at least five years (or three years if married to a U.S. citizen), you are eligible to apply for naturalization. The application process includes filling out forms, gathering necessary documents, and attending an interview and exam.
Our team of experienced attorneys will guide you through each stage of the process, ensuring that your application is thorough and accurate. We understand the complexities of immigration law and can help you avoid common mistakes or delays.
In addition to the standard path to citizenship, there are other options available for certain groups, such as members of the military, spouses, and children of U.S. citizens, and refugees or asylum seekers. Our attorneys can assess your eligibility for these alternative pathways and help you navigate any additional requirements.
We also offer consultations to determine your best course of action and answer any questions you may have about the citizenship process. We understand that each case is unique, and we strive to provide personalized solutions for your individual circumstances.
