Naturalization is the only way someone can become a citizen of the United States if they were not born a US citizen or if they did not acquire citizenship immediately after they were born. Before applying for naturalization, the individual must already have a permanent visa, otherwise known as a green card. In many instances, applying for naturalization is a lengthy and complicated process, which is why having lawyers guide you can make a difference. During the application process, the individual must submit various forms and documents that prove their eligibility.
