Are you a foreign-born parent considering becoming a citizen of the United States? Becoming a naturalized U.S. citizen can come with many advantages, including the potential to help your children immigrate to the United States.
The Benefits
Many foreign-born parents are looking for ways to help their children immigrate to the United States and become citizens. The good news is that, by becoming a citizen, you can assist your offspring in taking this step. As a U.S. citizen, you can sponsor certain family members and facilitate the visa process., This can dramatically reduce the amount of time it takes for them to gain entry into the United States and helps to ensure that they will have all of the necessary documents and paperwork required for immigration. Taking this route also offers more security than applying as a permanent resident in some cases. Becoming a U.S. citizen not only provides you with many benefits but can also provide lasting benefits for your children, who hope to establish permanent residence in the country one day as well.
In addition, there are other benefits associated with becoming a naturalized U.S. citizen that could be useful for your foreign-born children, such as access to more job opportunities and public benefits such as health insurance or student loans in some cases.
The Naturalization Process
To become a naturalized U.S. citizen, you will need to complete an application process which includes submitting various forms and documents proving your eligibility along with biometric information (such as fingerprints) taken at an authorized location. The process typically takes around six months but may take longer depending on various factors, such as backlogs at USCIS offices in certain areas or delays due to misfiled paperwork or incomplete applications.

We can help ensure all your paperwork is accurate and on time, ultimately helping you reach your goal of becoming a U.S. citizen!
