Citizenship​

Those born outside the US can become
US citizens via different paths:

  • You can become a US citizen automatically if you were born to US citizens
  • If you were not born to US citizens but have been a legal permanent resident in the US for several years, you are eligible for the naturalization process
  • You can become a US citizen when your parents become US citizens. 


No matter the process you need to undertake to become a US citizen, experienced and passionate lawyers at Law Offices of Karen S. Monrreal will guide you through all the steps until you reach the goal of becoming a US citizen.

We know the application for a US citizenship can seem arduous,
but we are here to help you!

Naturalization

Naturalization is the process by which a legal immigrant in the United States obtains United States citizenship. It is granted to a foreign national after he or she meets the requirements established by Congress in the immigration and nationality law.

If you would like to become a citizen, we will help you determine whether you apply for citizenship through naturalization and help you through all the steps of the process, from the application to the final interview. Make an appointment today, and start your path to a full American life!

Transmission of Citizenship

Transmission of citizenship is the process by which a person:

(1) Acquires citizenship because one or both their parents are US citizens or;

(2) Automatically becomes a citizen through the naturalization of their parents. The father or mother can be a citizen by birth or naturalization.
