AILA’s U.S. Citizenship and Naturalization Law Toolbox, 2nd ed. is a practical, easy-to-use resource for immigration attorneys handling citizenship and naturalization matters.

Updated to reflect developments since the 2021 edition, this Toolbox incorporates new and revised guidance on key changes in law, policy, and agency practice. It addresses recent USCIS updates affecting good moral character determinations, denaturalization, the civics test, and the tax consequences associated with acquiring or relinquishing U.S. citizenship, including a comprehensively revised article on citizenship-related tax issues.

Designed for daily practice, the Toolbox combines clear legal analysis with hands-on tools that can be applied directly to client cases. It helps practitioners identify clients who may already be U.S. citizens, guide eligible clients through the naturalization process, prepare for interviews and oath ceremonies, and respond to USCIS denials or delays.

Written by experienced immigration practitioners, the materials are organized by subject matter for quick reference. Practical forms, checklists, sample documents, and tips are grouped alongside the relevant discussions to support efficient and effective advocacy.

This Toolbox covers:

• Naturalization eligibility requirements and the N-400 process;
• Automatic acquisition of U.S. citizenship at birth and after;
• Special rules for military members;
• Maintaining LPR status and good moral character;
• Administrative and judicial review of USCIS denials;
• Denaturalization, dual citizenship, and loss or relinquishment of U.S. citizenship;
• Citizenship-related tax considerations and more!
