The Trump administration is significantly expanding efforts to investigate and potentially revoke U.S. citizenship for naturalized Americans. USCIS is now dedicating staff nationwide to identify cases where citizenship might have been obtained through alleged fraud or misrepresentation. While denaturalization remains rare and legally challenging, the new initiative could create additional scrutiny for naturalized citizens and applicants.
Key Points for Naturalized Citizens and Applicants:
Denaturalization requires substantial evidence of fraud or misrepresentation, or other serious offenses.
Citizenship cannot be revoked arbitrarily.
The process is complex, lengthy, and can take years, but it may involve requests for documentation or extensive legal review.
Even lawful, protected activities should not jeopardize citizenship, but the expanded scrutiny could increase administrative demands.
The process is complex, often taking years, and involves extensive legal review.
Naturalized citizens under investigation have the right to legal counsel and due process.
The expanded efforts may create administrative burdens and require additional documentation from applicants and recent citizens.

Consult an experienced immigration attorney if contacted by USCIS or the DOJ.
