Citizenship & Naturalization Lawyer in Orlando, Florida
Becoming a citizen of the United States is
the lifelong wish of many Orlando, Florida immigrants. Being
a citizen of the USA offers many rights and advantages, but
citizenship also comes with its share of responsibilities
and requirements. Even if you’ve lived in the Orlando,
Florida area for years as a legal permanent resident, the
requirements of becoming a US citizen may seem complicated
and out-of-reach. The Orlando, Florida citizenship and naturalization
lawyers at Maney | Gordon, P.A. are committed to helping our
clients who yearn to become US citizens.
When a foreigner wishes to become a citizen
of the United States, he or she must go through a process
called naturalization. Naturalization involves many years
of steps, procedures, applications, and tests which may seem
daunting to many immigrants. Unfortunately, sometimes small
errors on applications or a lack of legal understanding prevent
immigrants from realizing their dream of citizenship. By consulting
with a citizenship and naturalization lawyer in Orlando, Florida
from Maney | Gordon, P.A., you can become aware of your rights
and the options available to you. We can also show you how
to avoid mistakes and setbacks.
It typically takes several years to go through
naturalization, and a simple error could delay naturalization
for even longer. Our Orlando, Florida citizenship and naturalization
lawyers have advised clients about the following naturalization
steps and more:
- Continuous, permanent
residence in the USA (with a green
card or immigration
visa) for 5 years (sometimes less)
- Good moral character
- Age of 18 years or older unless adopted
by a US citizen
- Ability to read, write, and speak English
(waived for certain age groups and disabilities)
