USCIS Announces Program to Promote Citizenship

On November 20, 2014, the United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) announced a new program to promote citizenship and the naturalization process.

Beginning in 2015, USCIS will be conducting a program aimed at lawful permanent residents who are eligible to apply for naturalization.  The program will seek to promote citizenship education and raise public awareness.

To further encourage eligible permanent residents to apply for naturalization, USCIS will also be accepting credit card payments for the naturalization application fee, and will be conducting a fee study to assess the potential for partial application fee waivers.  These changes will also be implemented in 2015.
