Naturalization and Citizenship

U.S. citizenship is the highest honor awarded by the U.S. Government and provides a person with all of the rights enjoyed by persons born in the U.S. (for example, the right to vote, the right to live or travel abroad without jeopardizing your right to return, etc.). Not surprisingly, the requirements for citizenship and naturalization are among the most stringent in the U.S. legal system.
