Answer:

In order to be naturalized, an applicant must first meet certain criteria to apply for citizenship. Then, the applicant must complete an application, attend an interview, and pass an English and a civics test. Upon successful completion of these steps, the applicant takes an oath of allegiance, and becomes a citizen.

The steps in the naturalization process include:

1. Determine if you are eligible ( review the naturalization eligibility PDF on the homeland security website )

2. Prepare & submit your form N-400, Application for Naturalization.

3. If you need to have your biometrics taken, USCIS will send you an appointment notice with the date, time & location.

4. Complete the interview at the USCIS office that they will schedule with you.

5. Receive a decision from USCIS on your application.

6. Take the Oath of Allegiance to the United States at a naturalization ceremony.

7. Review and understand U.S. citizenship.

Hope this helps!!
