In recognition of Military Appreciation Month, 21 service members became #NewUSCitizens in May. Since 2002, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services(USCIS) has naturalized more than 170,000 members of the U.S. military, both at home and abroad.

Thank you to all who have answered the call to serve our country and defend our freedom. Military Appreciation is dedicated to honoring and acknowledging the service of our armed forces, both past and present.
Many foreign-born U.S. military members are unaware of the benefits they are entitled to or have been denied benefits they earned through their service to our country, including naturalization. Naturalization is the formal process of becoming a U.S. citizen.
Our free guide has an overview of the naturalization benefits non-citizen military members are entitled to and some background information and important facts you’ll want to know about becoming a U.S. citizen.
The information in our free guide will provide you with an overview of the special immigration benefits available for non-citizen military members. Don’t try to navigate the complicated USCIS immigration system alone. A simple mistake or missed deadline can cause your application to be delayed – or denied. Instead, an immigration lawyer with experience working with military members can answer your questions and help you achieve your American Dream.
