Frequently Asked Questions About Citizenship and Naturalization in Dallas

  • Processing times may vary depending on the case and USCIS. During your consultation, we can review updated estimates based on your immigration situation.

  • Here is the English translation of that text:

    "Generally, you must demonstrate the ability to read, write, and speak basic English during the interview. However, there are exceptions based on age and length of permanent residence (the 50/20 and 55/15 rules), or due to medical conditions. If you qualify, you can take the exam in your native language with the help of an interpreter.

  • Some immigration or criminal backgrounds can affect your eligibility for citizenship. At Santiago Riutort, PLLC, we thoroughly review your history before applying to avoid putting your resident status at risk.

  • Yes, but only if you have obtained your permanent residence through marriage to a U.S. citizen and have remained married to and living with that same spouse during those 3 years. For most other permanent residents (for example, through employment or petitions from other relatives), the mandatory waiting period is 5 years.

  • To qualify for naturalization, you must meet the continuous residence and physical presence requirements. This means you must have been physically inside the United States for at least half of the required period (18 months in most cases, or 30 months, depending on the rule that applies to you). Trips abroad that last more than six consecutive months can disrupt the continuity of your residence and delay your eligibility for naturalization.
