Our Impact

The New Americans Campaign is transforming the way aspiring citizens navigate the path to becoming new Americans.

Our innovative and collaborative approach has already yielded incredible results:

  • Over 52,000 citizenship applications completed since July 2011
  • Saved aspiring citizens and their families over $43 million in legal and application fees
  • Almost 1,000 naturalization events have been held by Campaign partners since July 2011

Eight million people who live, work, and pay taxes in this country are eligible for citizenship, yet only about eight percent of them naturalize each year. Find out more about these individuals and the barriers they face.Read More
