What are the rules for family-based immigration?

Family Based Immigration To be eligible to apply for an IV, a foreign citizen must be sponsored by an immediate relative who is at least 21 years of age and is either a U.S. citizen or U.S. Lawful Permanent Resident (that is, a green-card holder).

Can I bring a family member to my citizenship interview?

You can try to assist with interpretation but it is really a matter of discretion by the interviewing officer whether they will allow a family member to do so. You can contact your local service center prior to interview to get a more definitive answer. Good luck.

What documents would you use to determine or confirm each family members immigration status?

Commonly Used Immigration Documents Form N-550, Certificate of Naturalization. Form N-570, Certificate of Naturalization. Form N-560, Certificate of Citizenship. Form N-561, Certificate of Citizenship. Form I-551, Permanent Resident Card (Green Card) Temporary I-551, Machine Readable Immigrant Visa (MRIV)

Can someone accompany me to my citizenship interview?

Arguably the hardest question on the U.S. citizenship test is number 67: The Federalist Papers supported the passage of the U.S. Constitution. Name one of the writers. This answer is unknown to even most American citizens because the Federalist Party ceased to exist back in 1824.

Can I bring family to naturalization interview?

Bringing Other People to Your Interview They must complete and sign Form G-28 (officially called the Notice of Entry of Appearance as Attorney or Representative), which you must submit to USCIS with your naturalization application.
