Naturalization Offer Extends to World War Vets
Alien veterans eligible for simplified naturalization under a new law backed by the American Legion may petition at any time within two years after enactment. Veterans must appear in person, take the oath in open court, and meet the same terms as prior petitions. The law defines alien veterans as U S military members serving between April 5 1917 and November 12 1918 who are not disqualified by dishonorable discharge or other exemptions. Beneficiaries include those seeking citizenship with fewer first papers residence witnesses and fees, giving an advantage to veteran applicants to naturalize quickly.
