How do I become a U.S. Citizen?
Visit the USCIS website for information about how to become a U.S. Citizen. Also, you can download a "Guide to Naturalization" to help answer your questions.
You can download software from the USCIS website to complete your naturalization form and print a special bar-coded application that improves the accuracy and speed of a response.
