Program Description

Refugees are eligible to apply for citizenship after having lived in the U.S. for five years and completing related legal applications. Our citizenship classes are offered year-round with an open enrollment for individuals who have legal permanent residency/green card. Topics covered will help prepare community members for both the citizenship exam and interview with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services. Individual tutoring is also available for those who need to practice before their scheduled interview.
