Frequently Asked Questions
What documents do I need for a citizenship application?
Most naturalization cases require your green card, travel records, tax filings, and proof of continuous residence. The El Paso USCIS field office reviews each application closely. An attorney can build a checklist so nothing is missing before you submit.
How long does a green card case take?
Timelines vary by case type. Immediate relative adjustment cases nationally run about 8 to 18 months from filing to approval. A request for evidence can extend that. Accurate, complete paperwork from the start keeps your case moving.
Do I have to travel to Ciudad Juárez for my interview?
For many Mexican nationals, consular processing happens at the Ciudad Juárez consulate just across the border from El Paso. The applicant attends a visa interview there. Because the corridor is busy, planning ahead for documents and timing is important.
