My Mom Is A U.S. Citizen Today!

Posted March 20th, 2008 at 11:17 PM by Sleaklight

My mom was finally sworn in today as a United States citizen. She says it feels like any other day for her but she is glad she became a citizen. Kudos to her. She took the test in Spanish since she doesn't know English. Anyone else here is a naturalized citizen?

have been residing in the United States subsequent to a lawful admission for permanent residence for periods totaling 15 years or more and are over 55 years of age;
have been residing in the United States subsequent to a lawful admission for permanent residence for periods totaling 20 years or more and are over 50 years of age; or
have a medically determinable physical or mental impairment, where the impairment affects the applicant’s ability to learn English.
