USCIS inviting visitors to the new Citizenship and Resource Center, a Web portal that has information and resources on U.S. citizenship.
WASHINGTON—U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) Director Alejandro Mayorkas announced the launch of a federal initiative to raise awareness about the rights, responsibilities and importance of U.S. citizenship. The Citizenship Public Education and Awareness Initiative will provide new opportunities for immigrants to learn about USCIS’s free citizenship education resources available to eligible lawful permanent residents (LPRs) and immigrant-serving organizations.
A revised edition of the Civics and Citizenship Toolkit is now available. The Toolkit contains a selection of civics and naturalization-focused educational materials to help organizations begin or enhance a collection of resources for immigrants.
In its second edition, the Civics and Citizenship Toolkit now offers updated information and expanded content including:
I have my green card since June 30, 2001 and stayed in the US till December 2003 before leaving for India to attend to my father diagnosed with cancer. I have since been residing in India, visiting the US every 6 months or so to maintain GC. My wife got her citizenship in 2006 since she stayed back here in the US. I would now like to consider applying for citizenship - what is the minimum duration I need to be physically present in the US before applying?
1.5 years out of the last three and you must move back to USA before applying.
USCIS is offering three competitive grant funding opportunities designed to help prepare permanent residents for citizenship and promote immigrant integration in the United States.
Some civics test answers will change due to recent elections.
