Frequently asked questions
Can applying for citizenship get me deported?
It can — if you have an issue that makes you removable, filing an N-400 can put you on ICE's radar. That's why an eligibility review before filing matters.
Do minor criminal issues matter for naturalization?
They can affect good moral character and timing. We review the record and advise whether to file now or wait.
My N-400 has been pending forever. Options?
If USCIS unreasonably delays your naturalization, a 1447(b) or mandamus action in federal court can force a decision. See mandamus.lawyer.
What does the N-400 cost?
Attorney fees are typically a flat fee; the government filing fee is separate. See immigrationcost.com.
