yes they raised the fees i believe its not $350 for the paperwork needed to become a citizen. and yes the citizenship test is being modified to include a lot of things such as the september 11 attacks and the iraq war.As to the reason behind it,well congress believes that immigrants have no real knowledge about the history of the U.S aside from just memorizing basic stuff and that because of that they cannot assimilate properly into the culture.So they are hoping with this that they will understand the U.S better and therefore assimilate better into the american society.

I'm not sure why the fees are being raised, although some visas for rarely used visas are being dropped altogether, but I have read that the purpose of the change in questions on the test is to make sure that would be citizens understand the principles behind the questions. It's no longer "when did the civil war start," it is going to be things like what the Emancipation Proclamation did, or describing what the 1st Amendment to the Constitution entails. And I was under the impression it was still under a kind of trial to see how it went. I wouldn't describe those questions as "harder," but rather more practical and with an idea of the ideals of this country's forefathers. Everyone should know what rights they have under the Constitution especially.

i does no longer hardship with a legal specialist except you're wealthy and in a hurry, or in case you run into complications. the training should be demanding to dig up, even with the undeniable fact that it really is there once you've the time to look... visit USCIS, discover out a minimum of the position you may want to keep on with, bypass there first and make confident they grant you with each and each and every of the training you want. guy, i wish on your sake it really isn't any longer harder than the everlasting position of living.

It doesn't really matter. The democrats are going to make th 12 to 20 million illegal immigrants citizens anyway. They want the votes. That's all that concerns them.

it's all got to do with money hungry govt officials. i think it's good they're making it harder. maybe the illegals will eventually give up, and stay in their own country.
