On Sept. 17, 2012, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced the award of approximately $5 million in grants designed to promote immigrant civic integration and prepare permanent residents for citizenship. Under this program, 31 immigrant-serving organizations from 21 states and the District of Columbia will receive federal funding to support citizenship preparation services for permanent residents through September 2014.
Under this year’s program, grant recipients will offer citizenship instruction to prepare permanent residents for the civics and English components of the citizenship test, and naturalization application services within the scope of the authorized practice of immigration law. The period of performance for the grants is two years.
