What are the procedures for Fuzhou people to go abroad?

First of all, to apply for naturalization as an American immigrant, the applicant must have lived in the United States for five consecutive years after obtaining permanent residency. If you have something important to leave the United States halfway, it should not be more than half a year. If it is more than half a year, it will affect your application for naturalization, and your previous residence time may be recalculated. Reminder: If you have lived in the United States for more than three years and the legal period is over half, you can also apply to the Immigration Bureau for naturalization.

2. Foreign marriage

If you marry an American citizen and stay married for two years, you can also apply for naturalization. It should be noted that when you meet the requirements, you should apply for naturalization as soon as possible in order to enjoy the rights and treatment of American citizens as soon as possible.

3. Naturalization age

Regarding the application conditions for naturalization of immigrants in the United States, applicants applying for naturalization in the United States must be at least 18 years old. If their parents have acquired American citizenship, they can automatically acquire American citizenship with their parents. If you are between 16 and 18 years old, you need to apply for naturalization independently. If the father is an American citizen and the mother is not, the child can apply for help from the father when he is below 18. For example, in China, 18 years old is an adult, so many things need to be done by yourself, and you can't always rely on your parents.

4. Language ability

Applicants must have basic English reading, listening, speaking and writing skills. When applying for naturalization, the immigration officer will conduct an oral examination. If you fail the first oral exam, you can make up the exam twice in one year. If you are 50 years old or over, and have lived in the United States for 20 years or 15 years, you can be exempted from taking the English test. I think since you have lived in America for so long, I believe some everyday expressions will still work.

obey the law

I would like to remind you that the application conditions for naturalization of American immigrants have performed well during their five-year residence in the United States. Those who have bad behaviors such as rape, prostitution, bigamy, failure to perform maintenance obligations, alcoholism, drug abuse, etc. cannot apply for naturalization. Because these are not allowed in the United States, these bad behaviors will bring you to jail, no matter which country you are in, you must abide by the law.

6. History, Constitution and Immigration Law

The United States requires applicants to have a certain understanding of American history, constitution and immigration laws, generally speaking, important events, organizations and rights in history, constitutional principles and amendments. I think no matter which country you go to, you need to know all aspects of the country so that you won't make some mistakes.

7. Only by giving up can you have it.

To apply for citizenship, you must give up your original nationality. If you want to maintain your original international status, you can't become an American citizen. As the saying goes, you can only have it if you give up.
