US Citizenship

US Citizenship

U.S. Citizenship refers to the legal status granted to individuals recognized as citizens of the United States. This status provides numerous rights and privileges, including the right to vote, obtain a U.S. passport, apply for federal employment, and receive protection under U.S. laws.

Citizenship can be acquired in several ways:

• By birth within the United States
• Through the naturalization process
• Via derivative citizenship through parents

For immigrants, naturalization is the most common path, which involves passing exams in English language, U.S. history, and government, along with meeting specific residency and legal requirements.

A Certification in U.S. Citizenship validates your understanding of the naturalization process and confirms your proficiency in English, U.S. civics, and history, preparing you to navigate the requirements of becoming a U.S. citizen.
