The Eligibility Criteria If you are interested in applying for U.S. citizenship, first make sure that all of the following apply to you: You have lived in the United States as a lawful permanent resident for at least five years (with exceptions for refugees, people who get their green card through asylum, spouses of U.S. citizens, and U.S. military personnel); You have been physically present in the United States for at least half of the last five years; You have lived in the district or state where you are filing your application for at least three months; You have not spent more than a year outside the United States; You have not made your primary home in another country; You are at least 18 years old; You have good moral character; You are able to speak, read, and write in English; You are able to pass a test covering U.S. history and government (based on questions provided by USCIS); and You are willing to swear that you believe in the principles of the U.S. Constitution and will be loyal to the United States. Please be advised that applying for citizenship opens your whole immigration history to review. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will carefully investigate your background. If it discovers something wrong - for example, that you used fraud to get your green card or abandoned your residency by making your home outside the United States, it can strip you of your green card and send you out of the country.
