Naturalization & Citizenship Attorney in NY
You obtained your green card and created a life in the United States. Now, the time has come to make this your permanent home. But are there hidden obstacles on your path to American citizenship?
Nuñez Law can guide you through the process of becoming a naturalized U.S. citizen. As your attorney, I can help you with the paperwork, proactively address any barriers, and prepare you for the citizenship interview.
Why You Need a Citizenship Lawyer
You are not required to hire an attorney to apply for U.S. citizenship, but many immigrants do. It’s very important, especially if you have had any problems in the past with your visas or green card. The N-400 application is 21 pages long and will be closely scrutinized by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).
I can help you gather the necessary documents and complete the paperwork properly. My experience in immigration law and family-based immigration can help to identify any potential issues, such as:
- Interruptions of continuous U.S. residency
- Past arrests or convictions (in the U.S. or your country of origin)
- Past immigration violations (overstayed visa, etc.)
- Conflicting information from past immigration proceedings
- Expired or expiring green card
- Unpaid taxes or child support
Preparing for the Naturalization Interview
Most immigrants do not find the citizenship test too difficult. I can provide resources if you are worried about the civics quiz or the reading and writing portion. The interview with the USCIS officer and the speaking test make people nervous. I can prepare you for the questions the officer will likely ask and the parts where you must respond in English. I want you to feel confident and ready for your citizenship interview.
Empowering You to Achieve Your American Dream
Most immigrants experience a feeling of great pride — and great relief — once they achieve American citizenship. If you are ready to take this step, let me help.
