There are a number of requirements that must be met in order to become a U.S. citizen. The specific requirements will depend on the situation, but if you are a lawful permanent resident, you are generally eligible to apply for citizenship through naturalization. You will need to have lived in the U.S. for five years, in most cases, and physical presence criteria may apply. You must also be proficient in English, as well as American government and history. Finally, you must be of good moral character. If you have questions about becoming a U.S. citizen, our attorneys can help you find the answers.
