Thinking about becoming a U.S. citizen?

Learn what Form N-400 is, who can apply, the required documents, and how the naturalization process works.

Applying for U.S. naturalization through Form N-400 is a crucial step toward citizenship, but many applicants face denials due to avoidable mistakes. Here are common pitfalls and strategies to ensure a successful application:

1. Incomplete or Incorrect Application Errors in the form can lead to automatic rejections. Solution: Double-check all details, use USCIS resources, and seek professional assistance if needed.

2. Failure to Meet Residency Requirements Applicants must demonstrate continuous residence and physical presence. Solution: Track travel history carefully and maintain proper documentation.

3. Criminal History Issues Certain offenses may impact eligibility. Solution: Consult an immigration attorney to understand how past records may affect your case.

4. Errors in Tax Filings Unpaid taxes or filing inconsistencies can raise red flags. Solution: Ensure tax compliance and obtain proof of payments and filings.

5. Inadequate English and Civics Knowledge The naturalization interview includes an English and civics test. Solution: Prepare with USCIS study materials and practice tests.

By addressing these pitfalls, applicants can improve their chances of approval and move closer to U.S. citizenship.
