Naturalization and Oath Ceremony Protection Act guarantees approved applicants the right to complete naturalization.
The Naturalization and Oath Ceremony Protection Act amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to ensure individuals approved for naturalization have the right to appear at a scheduled ceremony, take the oath of allegiance, and receive a certificate of naturalization. It prohibits barring applicants from ceremonies based on nationality, country of origin, or place of birth. Exceptions are made only if the Secretary of Homeland Security determines the applicant is statutorily ineligible or the approval was obtained through fraud.
