CUNY Citizenship Now! provides free, high quality, and confidential immigration law services to help individuals and families on their path to U.S. citizenship. Our attorneys and paralegals offer one-on-one consultations to assess participants' eligibility for legal benefits and assist them in applying when qualified. We also coordinate community, educational, and volunteer initiatives to help expand opportunities for New York City's immigrant population.
Our volunteers primarily assist at citizenship application assistance events, held throughout New York City on Saturdays. At these events, volunteers work one-on-one with applicants, helping them complete the N-400 Application for Naturalization.
