USCIS announced it will provide five million dollars in grant funding to community organisations that prepare permanent residents for naturalisation and citizenship.
According to the announcement, public or non-profit organisations are eligible to apply as long as they can satisfactorily demonstrate "experience providing citizenship instruction and naturalisation application services to immigrants." However, 2011 grant recipients are not eligible for the 2012 grant.
Grant application deadline is May 7, 2012. The deadline will not be extended. Award recipients will be announced in September 2012.
This blog is about my immigration journey - which began in the late-1990s - from Zimbabwe to the United States of America. I am sharing my experiences with the objective of helping individuals who, similarly to me, may find the immigration process impermeable. I am not an attorney and the contents of this blog do not constitute legal advice.
