Partnership plans Citizenship Clinics along with American Immigration Lawyers Association across country
The National Partnership for New Americans has been working closely with the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) in several states to organize Citizenship Clinics in the next few weeks, including many on Saturday, April 21 which is AILA's Citizenship Day 2012.
These Citizenship Clinics are designed to assist lawful permanent residents ("green card" holders) who are interested in applying for U.S. citizenship. Volunteer AILA immigration attorneys, paralegals and interpreters are offering their FREE assistance with completing citizenship applications. Resources for preparing for the naturalization interview will be provided as well in many places.
