Naturalization Process Overview

The naturalization process allows green card holders to become U.S. citizens. 

It generally involves filing the proper form(s) with USCIS, attending a biometrics appointment, passing an interview and civics/English tests, and taking the Oath of Allegiance at a naturalization ceremony. 

Naturalization is important because it grants lawful permanent residents full rights and responsibilities as U.S. citizens. This includes the right to vote, access to federal jobs and benefits, the ability to sponsor family members for immigration, and protection from deportation.

It also provides a stronger sense of belonging and security, allowing individuals to fully participate in and contribute to their communities and the country.
