As you know, in recent years, the processing times for citizenship more than doubled.
This is evidenced by the official data given by Service of citizenship and migration (US Citizenship and Immigration Services, USCIS). If previously, such requests were dealt with within six months, and now this process, on average, takes about 10 months. Moreover, in some States, people expect a response in 2 years.
Now listed on the U.S. citizenship there are more than 700 thousand immigrants. They hope in the near future to become full citizens of the United States of America and complain that the authorities are delaying the procedure.
