N-400 pending and your green card is about to expire? Don't panic, and don't get on a plane.

Jim's advice: stay in the U.S. while your citizenship case is pending. You may not need to renew your green card at all.

And if you fail the citizenship test? It's not over. Most applicants get a second try, and you're still a green card holder while you prepare.

Jim answers questions like this live tomorrow in a free webinar, Becoming a U.S. Citizen. Friday, Oct 16, 3:00 p.m. CT. Comment CITIZEN2026 and we'll send you the link, or find it in the comments below.

Most citizenship denials we see were visible before anyone filed.

Here are the 6 mistakes we see over and over:
1. Filing before the window opens. You can file up to 90 days before your 3 or 5 year mark, not earlier.
2. Travel dates from memory. Pull the records. A mismatch with government records can read as dishonesty.
3. Leaving off a dismissed arrest. The form asks if you were ever arrested, not if you were convicted.
4. Guessing at a question you don’t understand. Ask the officer to repeat it or put it another way.
5. Filing with an unresolved I-751. Your citizenship case has to wait on that one.
6. Not updating after something changes. Your duty to disclose runs all the way to the oath.

Five of these six cost nothing to avoid.

Naturalization approvals dropped 78% in about a year and a half.

According to a National Foundation for American Policy analysis reported by Forbes, naturalization approvals fell 78% from January 2025 to July 2026. Over the same period, the denial rate more than doubled, from 8.4% to 20.1%.

Citizenship is still possible. But the process has changed in three big ways, and a lot of people are still filing like it’s 2024.

1. “Good moral character” is reviewed more broadly.
Since an August 2025 USCIS memo, officers take a “holistic” look at your record. They don’t just check for red flags anymore. They also look for positive factors, like:
- Filing and paying your taxes
- Steady work or education
- Caring for your family
- Involvement in your community

2. The civics test is harder. The old test asked 6 of 10 questions correctly from a pool of 100. The new test asks for 12 of 20 correct, from a pool of 128 questions. That’s more to study, so start early.

3. Filing fees may go up. A rule proposed in June 2026 would raise the N-400 fee from $710 to $1,280 if you file online, and from $760 to $1,330 on paper. It’s not final yet, but it’s worth knowing before you plan your timing.

The application you send matters more than it used to.

Mistakes and missing documents are much harder to fix after you file.

Attorney Jim Hacking is going live this Friday, October 16, at 3:00 PM Central to walk through what changed and how to prepare your citizenship application.
