Achieve Your Final Milestone: U.S. Citizenship.
Naturalization offers permanent security against deportation, full voting rights, and the ability to sponsor relatives faster. At JBC Law Office, we audit your record with precision before submitting Form N-400 so you never encounter unexpected risks at your USCIS interview.
Why You Must Audit Your Record Before Filing N-400
Filing for naturalization places your entire immigration and criminal history under direct government re-examination. If your green card was issued erroneously, if you spent prolonged periods outside the U.S., or if you have unresolved arrests or tax issues, filing Form N-400 can trigger deportation proceedings rather than citizenship.
Our Honest Guarantee: We review your complete history first. If naturalization puts your status in jeopardy, we will tell you honestly and explore protective measures before filing anything with USCIS.
Naturalization Requirements We Review
Continuous Residence & Presence
5 years as a permanent resident (or 3 years if married to a U.S. citizen). We calculate your physical presence days and verify trips outside the U.S. never broke continuous residence.
Good Moral Character (GMC)
Audit of IRS tax filing compliance, child support orders, and certified police clearances or court dispositions for any past encounters with law enforcement.
English & Civics Exam Preparation
Comprehensive study materials for the 100 civics questions, reading, and writing tests. Guidance on age and residency exemptions (50/20, 55/15, and 65/20 rules).
Medical Disability Waivers (N-648)
For applicants with physical or developmental disabilities or mental impairments preventing them from demonstrating English or civics proficiency.
