- You were born in the United States.
- Your parents were citizens at the time of your birth.

3. How do I become a naturalized citizen of the United States?
The first step to becoming a naturalized citizen is to determine eligibility for citizenship.
Generally, people are eligible for citizenship if they are at least 18 years of age and have resided permanently for at least 5 years in the United States.
Also if you have been married for at least 3 years to a US citizen. They must also meet other eligibility requirements.
If you qualify, then the next step is to submit a naturalization application. For it to be processed correctly, the ideal is to have the advice of an Immigration lawyer.
If the application is approved, now you must go through the following final stages of the procedure:
- Successfully complete an interview.
- Pass an English and history exam.
- Take the oath of allegiance to the United States.
4. What are the different immigration visas?
There are dozens of different visas, available for different purposes. However, they can be categorized in two ways:
- Non-immigrants
- Immigrants
Nonimmigrants include student, traveler and business visas.
On the other hand, immigrant visas, also known as Green Cards, can be obtained after the immigrant entered the United States with a nonimmigrant visa and meets certain requirements; or through a family-based immigration.
The process is competitive, since the government only grants a limited number of Green Cards each year.
5 . What happens if they deny my application for naturalization?
In that case, you have 30 days from when the decision was made to appeal with the help of a lawyer. If this time expires, the denial will be final.
