A foreign citizen or national may become a United States citizen by going through a legal process called
naturalization. The privilege of citizenship requires allegiance to the United
States. In return, a citizen is entitled to the full legal protection of the United States.
Many permanent
residents have chosen to further formalize their relationship to the United States
each year by applying for U.S. citizenship. They are motivated by loyalty and love of their adopted country, as well as an interest in the benefits they will receive as citizens. It makes sense to hire an attorney to help you with naturalization - the application must be completed correctly, and the applicant must pass two tests to be naturalized.
