Citizenship is currently hotly debated issue in Immigration Law. There are three bases for United States Citizenship: birth Citizenship, blood Citizenship, and naturalization. If an child is born anywhere in the United States, he or she receives U.S. Citizenship by jus soli, that is, by right of birthplace. If a child is born to at least one United States citizen, anywhere in the world, that child is a U.S. citizen by jus sanguinis, that is, right of blood. 

The process of naturalization is more complex, and involves acquiring Citizenship by legal means. There are a number of requirements that must be met in order to be eligible for Citizenship by naturalization, including an age requirement, a knowledge of English, a knowledge of U.S. history and government, and several more concerning residency and character. A Naturalization Lawyer can guide an immigrant through the process of becoming a naturalized citizen. Experienced Immigration Attorneys will be able to help aliens achieve Citizenship through this legal means. The naturalization test is administered by The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and is sometimes called the INS Test or Immigration and Naturalization Services Test. An Immigration Lawyer can explain how the test works and likely questions, so that a potential citizen is prepared.
