We help clients who are US permanent residents to qualify for citizenship through the US naturalization process. Becoming a US citizen offers many benefits to those who have held Green Cards for at least 5 years (or 3 years, if the client is married to a US citizen)
Citizens have a greater capability than permanent residents to help their relatives immigrate to the United States. Citizens are better able to qualify for social security and other government benefits than permanent residents. Sensitive government jobs and certain scholarships are only available to citizens. Citizens can run for public office and vote in state, federal and local elections.
It is always advantageous to retain an immigration lawyer to handle an application for citizenship. We will flag possible defects the government could have with your application and advise you on how best to eliminate those defects. We also make sure to address any issues that arise after you submit your citizenship application to minimize the risk of delaying or derailing the review process. Overall, we’ll give you peace of mind from knowing you’ve done everything you can to prevent your application from being denied.
