First of all, the applicant must submit a complete naturalization application form to the immigration office in the jurisdiction where he lives, and then the immigration office will arrange for the applicant to go to the relevant place for fingerprint filing and make a three-month background check. After the investigation, the applicants will be arranged for an interview at the Immigration Bureau, and they must pass the English listening, speaking, reading and writing test. In some cases, applicants' English requirements will be exempted, and even Chinese interviews will be met in some cases. Applicants who are unable to take the exam due to disability may apply for exemption from the exam. Then the applicant should know about the history and government structure of the United States. After all this is successfully passed, we will enter the last step of the naturalization process-the oath ceremony, at which the applicant will swear allegiance to the United States. On the day of the oath, the applicant can obtain a naturalization certificate and become an American citizen. If the applicant has children under the age of 18, they can apply for naturalization together, otherwise they must wait until the children reach the age of 18.
