AJSOCAL's Orange County Immigration and Citizenship team provides free citizenship application assistance services. Our services are open to all, regardless of ethnicity, but we prioritize Asian American, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders who are low-income and limited -English speakers. We are a team of legal immigration experts who speak five different Asian languages: Vietnamese, Korean, Mandarin, Tagalog, and Hindi. If interested, we can offer free educational workshop to library patrons about the eligibility requirement to become a citizen and answer frequently asked questions. We will provide a mobile team unit to the location to prepare citizenship applications for the members of the community. For these clinics, our team of 4-6 will come to any location with our laptops, printers, citizenship forms, and mailing materials for immediate preparation. No preparation will be necessary on the library's part. We would only require a space to host these clinics. In preparation for the clinic, we would require an approximately 15-minute telephone intake with the interested applicant. During the intake, we would collect basic information about the applicant to make sure they are eligible to apply for naturalization. After the intake, we will send the interested applicant information they must compile (called a "Bring List") and return to us on the day of the clinic or their scheduled appointment time. We will then assist client in mailing their applications. If necessary, our team offers mock interviews for the clients closer to their interview date in which we will practice with and prepare clients for their interview.
