Citizenship applications double in Phoenix
Tagged: Arizona, citizenship, PhoenixPosted on: September 13th, 2007“The number of immigrants applying for citizenship in Phoenix has doubled in the past year, and approvals of those applicants also are on the rise.
Nearly 16,000 legal immigrants applied for citizenship from Oct. 1, 2006, to July 31, according to data from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.
That’s twice as many as the nearly 8,000 who applied during the same period the year before. And during the past fiscal year, approvals of those applications rose from 5,607 to 7,319.”
