MIRA and the City of Somerville are hosting a free citizenship assistance event tomorrow from 11am-1pm at the Somervile High School gymnasium (81 Highland Ave.). Come learn all about the naturalization process, and immigration lawyers and interpreters will be on hand to listen to your case and help you complete your citizenship application. This is a family-friendly event complete with face painting and Brazilian jazz from Racha Fora, so if you can’t find someone to watch your kids, you can bring them with you.
All attendees should bring their greencard, photo IDs, Social Security card, a list of the places you’ve lived and worked over the last five years, and your most recent tax return. If you’re a low-income earner and you need help paying for the application fee, please bring a letter in English from the program you participate in or a copy of your most recent tax returns. If you’re applying for citizenship based on marriage, please bring your marriage certificate and any documentation relevant to your marriage (joint bank statements, court decrees that legally changed your name, etc.).
You can find a full list in English of the documents you should bring here.
