Citizenship Now!

CUNY Citizenship Now! provides free, high quality, and confidential citizenship and immigration law services to help immigrants on their path to U.S. citizenship.

For free immigration assistance, contact any of our nine centers located throughout New York City. Services include confidential one-on-one consultations with immigration attorneys and paralegals, as well as citizenship and family immigration application assistance. 

For help with citizenship applications on weekends, come to one of our Citizenship Now! events where you can also be helped free of charge. These events are generally held on Saturdays. To volunteer at our weekend events, join the NYC/CUNY Citizenship Now! Corps.
