#naturalization
I did THIS thing seven years ago today.

did you know that intercountry #adoptees born before 1983 have no guarantee of US citizenship, and instead are treated as immigrants who must obtain citizenship through naturalization? That they are subject to deportation if they have committed a crime or are deemed to be in the US “illegally?”

fun fact: you can't get a work/student visa to build up residency time for naturalization unless you have private insurance! which means those of us who lose our insurance in january are fucked :) if we stay we will die, and we aren't allowed to leave! cool! awesome!

Do you know how long the naturalization process can take? *Eligibility is required, including being at least 18 years old and a lawful permanent resident for a specific period, meeting residency and continuous presence requirements, and demonstrating good moral character. *

Not saying that if you, your parents, or your grandparents parents are a naturalized citizen and you call for someone to be denaturalized you and every relative that can trace to the naturalization process should be stripped of your citizenship and expelled from this country, but I’m interested.
oh cool, now we have Indian-American zoomer idiots that think that they can draw the line to include them to exclude them from MAGA's anti-Indian sentiment

Naturalization agency catering to Americans

Today in my Family + Law in American history class, we were scheduled to begin discussing immigration law. And then I learned BYU was hosting a naturalization ceremony at the exact time as our class, so we moved class here instead.

Few things remind me what I love about America as much as this.

If the democrats do well tonight nationally and Mamdani wins New York City I would expect we see a massive acceleration in not just openly anti democratic actions at the state and federal level but also the de naturalization of Mamdani and others including Omar etc.

Also: "displaying their country of birth" ???

Like, naturalization is (still) a thing, y'all know that, right?!

If someone has a *United States* passport, it means they're a citizen, and it doesn't continue to read "France" or "India" or "Nigeria" as one's country.

Fucking bigoted tripe.

Steve Bannon updates the racist Obama birth certificate playbook for Mamdani: "I think this guy's citizenship should be checked. If the guy lied on his naturalization papers, he ought to be deported and put on a plane to Uganda." Mamdani was 7 when he moved to the US. www.yahoo.com/news/article...

I have participated several times at the tables the LA County Dem Party sets up outside naturalization events.
The six-foot cardboard of Obama was a great draw. The local GOP had tables too.
Hardly anyone stopped there.
We, however, got lots of new registrations.
🚨BREAKING: A civil rights organization sued the Trump administration Saturday over a new policy barring nonprofits from helping new U.S. citizens register to vote. The lawsuit calls the policy part of a “broader effort to ensure that new Americans cannot exert their democratic will on the nation.”

Arizona law says that public school students need to correctly answer "seventy out of the one hundred" questions on a civics test that is "identical" to the citizenship naturalization test used by the US government.

The naturalization test is now 128 questions.

Yes. "Department of Homeland Security" has a Nazi Germany ring to it. And demolish ICE. Bring back INS (Immigration and Naturalization Service) w/ a mission that reflects the true & historical nature of the U.S. And tear down CBP. Customs should be separate from Border Patrol, and remake the latter.

From the day I got my naturalization certificate I vowed I would crawl over broken glass to cast my vote. No matter how jaded. How sad. How angry. I would always show up. I have nothing to lose but time for trying. Because sometimes you get nights like last night.

The lawsuit also argues a blatant violation of the Fifth Amendment, as NGOs are only blocked by the federal government from this activity at naturalization ceremonies, not elsewhere. (For now…)

Sounds like her eventual naturalization was based on fraudulent documents. Accountability?

I've had the joy of showing one particularly obstinate such story teller - who shared nothing but his name online - his grandfather's arrival manifest and naturalization papers proving that Ellis Island left his old name unchanged

Sounds like Skatteverket was sloppy.

Did they register her as Swedish citizen around 30 years ago without noting her birthdate was before Swedish parent’s naturalization date?

What caused this to be caught now: a fishing expedition against all naturalized and foreign-born Swedish citizens?

We are inviting residents to participate in an online survey to collect feedback on Albro Lake Park current uses and ways residents would like to see the park improve. Results will inform the design of the planned 2026 naturalization project.

Take the survey by Dec. 5 at engagehalifax.ca/albro-lake
