Cicero, IL Immigration Law Attorneys Representing Clients in Matters of Citizenship and Naturalization
Once it is granted, U.S. citizenship bestows many different legal rights and advantages to those who hold it. American citizens have the right to vote in state and federal elections, the right to travel freely around the world, and the ability to access many important educational and financial benefits.

U.S. Citizenship Requirements
If you or a loved one is an immigrant who is seeking American citizenship, you will be required to go through the naturalization process. You can only apply to become a naturalized U.S. citizen if you can meet the basic eligibility requirements. Some of the most notable requirements are as follows:
- You must be a lawful permanent resident;
- You must have lived in the U.S. for at least five consecutive years;
- You must be able to demonstrate basic English language proficiency;
- You must have an understanding of American history and civics; and
- You must possess good moral character.
The Process of Naturalization
Naturalization is a multi-step process. It can be lengthy and confusing, and there are many different points at which you may wish to be represented by a qualified Cicero immigration law attorney. To get your application approved, you will need to do each of the following:
- Prepare your Form N-400, Application for Naturalization.
- Go through a comprehensive criminal background check, including submitting your fingerprints to U.S. immigration officials;
- Attend an immigration interview with a representative of  USCIS;
- Pass all of the required tests, including the civics test and English proficiency test; and
- Take the Oath of Allegiance to the United States.
Overcoming the Obstacles
For some people, U.S. citizenship feels out of reach due to some mistake that they made in their past. You may think that there is no chance that the officials at United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will ever accept your application. Do not be so sure. Our Cicero immigration lawyers have helped many people overcome citizenship obstacles, including people with criminal records. No matter your circumstances, let our team review your case.

Kevin Raica literally saved my life. He helped me out of a dangerous situation that my previous attorney had put me in.

He genuinely cared about my situation and gave me hope when I couldn’t see any for…

We have been in the dark with our case for over 2 decades, while working with other big firms who just kept me in the dark and sat on our case without making any effort to move it forward until I met the wonderful team at Kriezelman & Burton.

Our experience with the firm was extraordinary. We worked with attorney Andrea Ochoa. Since the very first meeting we met, Andrea gave us all the confidence to proceed with our case. She always answered our questions shortly and offered clear guidelines to proceed. When my son's case received a notice of intent to deny, she planned how to fight that decision effectively. We totally recommend everyone to trust their case…
I just want to say huge thank you to Mr. Kevin A. Raica. for everything he has done for me throughout my immigration case. When I first came to Kevin, he explained the SIJS process clearly and walked me through the steps. We first needed to get the guardianship court order before moving forward with the I-360, and he connected me with a trusted attorney to help with that part.…
I cannot find the words to express my gratitude to Brittni Rivera! She literally saved my family. We had been waiting seven years for what she accomplished in just three weeks.
