We provide assistance and guidance for those who struggle in achieving lawful permanent residency and those who wish to become citizens of our nation. The Legal Immigration and Citizenship Program staff is a significant resource in our communities known for their experience and expertise in the processes of becoming legal residents and/or citizens.

Staff ensures full and accurate assistance for the current caseload of 5,000 clients annually in addition to over 9,000 services for consultation, replacement of legal permanent cards, work authorization renewal, applications for U.S. citizenship and English translation of certificates of birth, marriage, divorce, death and adoption all which must be filed in English when navigating the immigration procedures.

Those who meet the requirements for a visa can rely on staff that provides accurate, honest and dignified services that help them navigate through this complex process. Catholic Charities has an excellent partnership and relationship with the U.S. Citizenship and Legal Immigration Services with whom we work to provide educational workshops about the immigration process and attaining naturalized citizenship.
