Citizenship in the United States
Citizens of the United States can live and work in the U.S. permanently and will be protected from losing their status if they pursue extensive traveling abroad. Other benefits of obtaining citizenship include the ability to vote in U.S. elections and petitioning for permanent residency for relatives. Contact our firm for representation through the process.
Citizenship can be achieved in one of the following ways:
- Birth
- Derivation
- Naturalization
Assistance from a Houston Citizenship Attorney
Citizenship can be pursued after you have a green card and have received lawful permanent resident status in the country.

- Be physically present in the U.S. for more than 50% of the required residency period
- Be a person of good moral character
- Take an oath of loyalty to the U.S.
- Be able to speak, read, and write simple phrases in the English language

She helped me figure out an easier way for me and my boyfriend to be together forever and make it easier on him to come over here to the United States to marry me sometime down the road. :)- Nicole

Rebekah did a wonderful job! We were very close in the process to be approved for our green card but then the news came, we were denied because not delivering the correct RFE. She was immediately sure there was a mistake made and started her investigation. In 3 weeks, she turned our case from denial to having our green cards in the mail. couldn't be happier! Thanks Rebekah!
