Naturalization/Citizenship - U.S. Citizenship is obtained either through birth in the United States or naturalization. There are several benefits to becoming a U.S. citizen, including higher estate tax exemptions, greater freedom of international travel, federal employment possibilities and the right to vote. Additionally, there are federal grants and scholarships available only to U.S. citizens.

How The Nuñez Firm can help you: Our firm can help you to prepare and file your citizenship application. We can advise as to whether there are any issues in your case that need to be addressed or that may pose a problem in processing your application for U.S. Citizenship. In some cases, the filing of a naturalization application can result in a denial as well as deportation proceedings, if the applicant has certain criminal violations, moral character issues or immigration violations. In these cases, it is best to consult with an immigration attorney before beginning the naturalization process. In this way, the bars to naturalization can be cured before applying for U.S. Citizenship.

Additionally, The Nuñez Firm can help you if your naturalization application has been pending for an unreasonable amount of time. We employ several strategies in order to move a naturalization application through the administrative process including working with Congressional representatives, Immigration liaisons and filing lawsuits, if necessary.
