Military Family Appreciation Month is celebrated in November to recognize the sacrifices made by military families. Spouses and children of active and retired military members, including immigrants and non-citizens, may be eligible for special citizenship benefits and services.
Military families make many sacrifices, and the U.S. government offers special citizenship benefits and services to show its appreciation. Some of these benefits include:
Did you serve in the U.S. military and wonder if you’re qualified to become a U.S. citizen? Do you have family members who are non-citizens?
The United States does not require you to be a citizen to serve in the U.S. armed forces. Active military members and former service members and their families who are not United States citizens are entitled to certain benefits in appreciation of their service. Due to their military service, immigrant military service members and their families have special immigration benefits – including naturalization benefit.
If you are a current or former military member or military family member who wants to become a U.S. citizen or has another immigration issue, contact an experienced immigration attorney to help you navigate the complex USCIS immigration system.
