The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will be
giving a free webinar on June 29 at 1:00PM ET. The topic is Disloyalty,
Naturalization and World War l. During World War l some immigrant groups
were suspected of being disloyal to the United States war effort. The
Bureau of Naturalization, a predecessor to the USCIS investigated the
loyalty of the immigrants being naturalized to ensure that they were
qualified to become American citizens.

As part of the commemoration of the centennial of the US entering World War
l, the USCIS History Office is offering this webinar for the public to learn
of the Bureau's wartime activities using primary source documents which
include examples of loyalty investigations and cancelled certificates of
naturalization.
