The first week of July is not just a time for celebrating
the birth of the United States of America but also a time to look towards the
country’s future and welcome new immigrants as US Citizens. Last week’s
Independence Day celebrations coincided with more than 100 naturalization
ceremonies, taking place around the country between July 1st and 5th. Some 7,800 people took the Oath of Allegiance
and with it the opportunity to “fulfill their dream of becoming US Citizens,” in
the words of USCIS Director Mr. Alejandro Mayorkas.
This year’s celebration of citizenship also featured special
naturalization ceremonies at sites integral to America’s struggle to maintain
independence and defend freedom, including: the USS Midway Museum in San Diego;
the Battleship Missouri Memorial at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii; Perry’s Victory and
International Peace Memorial in Put-in-Bay, Ohio; and aboard the USS
Constitution in Boston.
As a USCIS approved EB-5 Regional Center, CiF is proud to be
investing in catalytic, Cleveland-area development projects and to be helping
qualified foreign nationals become permanent US Citizens. We have helped secure
US Green Cards for more than 300 qualified foreign nationals and are eager to
help others pursue their path to US Residency.
