I need a form from the USCIS, but the local office won't give me one. How do I get a USCIS form?

Forms can be downloaded from theUSCIS website or by calling 1-800-870-3676.

How long does it take to become naturalized?

The time it takes to be naturalized varies from one local office to another. In 1997, in many places, it took over 2 years to process an application. USCIS continues to improve the naturalization process. As of October 2001, USCIS reported that it takes, on average, between 6 and 9 months to become naturalized.

How do I determine the status of naturalization applications?

USCIS has a Case Status system available via telephone at 1-800-375-5283 or 1-800-767-1833 (TTY)
