Eligibility Requirements 

Lawful permanent residents (LPR) who meet the following list of conditions are eligible to apply for naturalized citizenship in the United States:

• 18 years of age or older
• Have held continuous residency in the U.S. for at least 5 years while remaining physically present for at least half of that time
• Are able to speak, write, and read basic English 
• Have basic knowledge and understanding of U.S. history and government
• Is a person of good moral character

• Have registered with the Selective Service System (if male and between the ages of 18 and 26)
• Has no outstanding deportation or removal orders

We Navigate You Through The Steps Of Naturalization Swiftly And Effectively 

Form N-400 is the application that an LPR must complete to begin the naturalization process. It is an extremely elaborate collection of paperwork that is over 20 pages long and requires you to disclose essential information about your background and history. You can expect to provide the USCIS with your personal information, eligibility information, residence history, travel history, family information, criminal and legal history, Selective Service Registration (if applicable), U.S. income tax history, and more. Additionally, you will need to submit a handful of supporting documents with your application, such as photocopies of your green card, travel documents, tax returns, and more. 

It can be daunting to face the application alone and may even lead to feelings of anxiety and restlessness over the fear of making a mistake that could jeopardize your progress. You can rely on our attentive Mesa citizenship lawyer to walk you through the application, answer any of your questions, and ensure that you feel confident in your execution. Your application will be meticulously reviewed for any mistakes that should be corrected before its submission. 

Once Form N-400 has been submitted, you will need to schedule a biometrics appointment and an interview with the USCIS where your English skills and basic U.S. history and knowledge will be examined. We can assist you in scheduling and preparing for these appointments so that you have the best possible outcome.
