Citizenship Application Advocates will assist immigration clients with completing citizenship applications at group processing events. Volunteers will work closely with IRC immigration coordinators to understand the process and accurately assist clients with their applications. Volunteers will advise clients on what documents and information are needed to complete the application, and screen clients to make sure they have the necessary documentation. Volunteers will not provide legal advice of any kind.
