Naturalization Process Services— we can help you step-by-step!

According to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), Naturalization is the process by which U.S. citizenship is granted to a foreign citizen or national after he or she fulfills the requirements established by Congress in the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA).

Naturalization can be a daunting process for many aspiring citizens, but it is also an important milestone in the path toward realizing your American dream. Through the Pathways to Citizenship program, Hispanic Unity of Florida (HUF) offers convenient citizenship classes, assistance with the Naturalization Application, and more!

Our agency has helped more than 15,000 clients become U.S. citizens in the last decade.
