U.S. Naturalization & Citizenship Lawyer – RPatel Law Orlando
About Naturalization
Naturalization is the process by which U.S. citizenship is granted to a lawful permanent resident after meeting the requirements established by Congress in the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA).
Acquisition of citizenship is obtained through U.S. citizenship parents either at birth or after birth but before the age of 18.
The most common path to U.S. citizenship through Naturalization is being a lawful permanent resident (LPR) for at least five years.
