Uniform naturalization act of 1802 citizen rules

The act establishes a uniform path to U S citizenship for aliens who are free white persons. It requires a long oath of intent, renunciation of foreign allegiances, proof of residence, and good moral character. It creates registry procedures for newcomers and grants rights to children of naturalized parents, while repealing prior naturalization statutes.

It also states that widows and children of aliens who die after complying with the first condition become citizens upon taking the required oaths. Approved March 29 1804.

Law on Naturalization Conditions in Early United States

Historic act outlines requirements for aliens seeking citizenship, detailing certificates of report and declaration of intention, residency proofs, and court recitals. Provisions encompass dates from 1798 to 1824, including exemptions for certain free white residents and procedures for admissibility.

Early US Naturalization Reform Texts and Provisions

The passage outlines an act to standardize naturalization rules, repealing prior measures. It specifies that a free white alien under 21, who has resided in the United States three years before turning 21, may become a citizen after five total years in the U S, including minority years, if a declaration is made at admission and an oath shows three years of bona fide intent. It also states invalidation of prior citizenship certificates for noncompliance with the act’s evidence requirements.
