Before filing for citizenship, you must be at least 18 years old, have a green card, and have lived in the U.S. for at least five years. Additionally, you must live in the specific state where you’re filing for citizenship for at least three months before you submit your application. Furthermore, filing for citizenship requires a basic understanding of the English language, so you must be comfortable reading, writing, and speaking in English. Applicants are also required to show upstanding moral character, prove their allegiance to the U.S., and pass a basic U.S. government and civics test.
