This bill proposes an amendment to the Immigration and Nationality Act, specifically addressing the naturalization process for certain individuals. Its primary goal is to remove a particular residency requirement for spouses of active-duty military personnel. Under this legislation, the existing 3-month State or Service district residency requirement for naturalization applicants would no longer apply to individuals who are lawfully admitted permanent residents and are married to a member of the Armed Forces serving on active duty at a location in the United States . This change aims to streamline the naturalization process for military spouses, acknowledging the frequent relocations and unique circumstances faced by military families.
