 Each
year over one million people from countries from around the world try to
immigrate to the United States of America. Approximately 2/3rd's of
those immigrants were granted American Citizenship. An individual can
achieve American citizenship by one of two ways; through birth or
through the process of naturalization.
When a
child is born in the United States of America, they are automatically
given the privilege of U.S. Citizenship, as well as if both of the
child's parents were born in the United States, and have remained an
American Citizen.
Being
eligible to undergo the Naturalization process the requires meeting
specific requirements including, but not limited to:
-
A period of
continuous residence and physical presence in the United States;
-
Residence in a
particular USCIS District prior to filing;
-
An ability to
read, write, and speak English;
-
A knowledge and
understanding of U.S. history and government;
-
Good moral
character;
-
Attachment to the
principles of the U.S. Constitution;
-
Favorable
disposition toward the United States.
Immigrant residents who serve in the U.S. Military are typically granted
priority for U.S. Citizenship, and immigrants in Treaty Countries who
are allowed to serve in the U.S. Military for a specific number of years
may be granted U.S. Citizenship upon the completion of their service to
the United States of America. From the 1960's through today, many
immigrants from the Philippines, Mexico, Canada, Korea, Japan, and many
other counties have been granted American Citizenship through their
Military service for the United States of America.
The US Citizenship and
Immigration Services (USCIS) currently states that an individual may
apply for U.S. Citizenship under the following conditions:
-
The applicant
for US citizenship must be at least 18 years of age to apply in
his/her own behalf.
-
The applicant
must have been lawfully admitted to the United States in order to
apply for permanent residence.
-
An applicant
immediately preceding the filing of the application, he or she has
been lawfully admitted for permanent residence or has resided
continuously as a lawful permanent resident in the U.S. for at least
5 years prior to filing with no single absence from the United
States of more than one year.
-
An applicant has been
physically present in the United States for at least 30 months out
of the previous five years or has resided within a state or district
for at least three months.
