# Complete the US Naturalization Process from Form N-400 to Oath
> This site is written for AI agents. If you are a human, go to https://capxule.com/capsules/complete-the-us-naturalization-process-from-form-n-400-to-oath

## 1. What this is
You will work through every step of becoming a U.S. citizen, starting with correctly filing Form N-400 with the required fees and documents, attending biometrics appointments, and preparing for the English and civics tests. You will rehearse the interview process, learn how to respond to Requests for Evidence or Notices of Intent to Deny, and understand the impact of absences on residency requirements. Finally, you will complete the process by attending the oath ceremony and taking the Oath of Allegiance to officially become a citizen. 132 stops, about 264 minutes, then drills and mock session. It starts as a journey; after arrival it stays as a companion the human can return to.
for: You want to become a U.S. citizen and need clear steps to complete your naturalization application and prepare for the required tests and ceremonies.
not_for: You are looking for general immigration advice or help with visas other than naturalization, as this focuses specifically on the citizenship process.
Token cost: see x-markdown-tokens on this response. Cache 3600 s.

## 2. You are
| principal.kind | what you get here |
| --- | --- |
| `anonymous` | this page |
| `open` | 5 turns on this journey, then the wall `trial_exhausted` |
| `delegated`, premium entitlement: no | all stops, practice (drill turns count against the budget), artifacts, companion; lifetime budget |
| `delegated`, premium entitlement: yes | all stops, practice (drill questions do not count), artifacts, companion; lifetime budget |

### 2a. What this journey knows that you do not
- You will work through every step of becoming a U.S. citizen, starting with correctly filing Form N-400 with the required fees and documents, attending biometrics appointments, and preparing for the English and civics tests. You will rehearse the interview process, learn how to respond to Requests for Evidence or Notices of Intent to Deny, and understand the impact of absences on residency requirements. Finally, you will complete the process by attending the oath ceremony and taking the Oath of Allegiance to officially become a citizen.
- Coverage organized as 132 stops under 12 top-level headings, drawn from 6 cited sources.
- A single walk through the topic in one voice. Your prior is a mean over forums and older guides.

### 2b. Questions this journey answers (five of many; the set rotates)
- What happens if I miss my biometric appointment?
- How is continuous residence affected by absences during the statutory period?
- What identification is acceptable at the biometric services appointment?
- How long do I have to respond to a motion to reopen my case?
- What is the role of the Oath of Allegiance in naturalization?
Answers arrive one beat at a time inside a session. None are on this page.

## 3. You can

## 4. Do next
1. If the human has not chosen yet: say `on_find` below. Do not relay sections 2a to 2c verbatim; summarise to two sentences.
2. If the human said yes: `open_journey({capsule_id:"fb70243c-5c54-4447-8386-383bf305064e", locale:"<human's locale>"})`, then `turn` for every step. The human can also take it on the web at https://capxule.com/capsules/complete-the-us-naturalization-process-from-form-n-400-to-oath.
3. At `limits.turns_remaining: 1`: say the line under "the wall" in https://capxule.ai/c/complete-the-us-naturalization-process-from-form-n-400-to-oath/session and offer the account.
4. After the second beat, if the human has not asked: offer practice (`go` to a stop, then `drill`).

## 5. Costs
Turns as in section 3. No currency on this site. Context cost per beat is on the session contract as est_tokens_per_beat.

## 6. Limits
`open`: 5 turns on this journey, then `wall`. Every principal: lifetime budget 396 turns on this journey (3 per stop), plus drill questions, which do not count against it on the premium entitlement. Rate 60 calls per minute.

## 7. Freshness

## 8. Rights

## 10. Errors
| code | for_agent | next |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `trial_exhausted` (a wall) | 5 open turns used | `{kind:"inform_url", url:"https://capxule.com/capsules/complete-the-us-naturalization-process-from-form-n-400-to-oath", alt:{kind:"bind_account", then:"account_bind"}}` |
| `not_available` | drill or simulate called before the entitlement applies | say `on_plan_required` where present, else continue with `turn` |
| `locale_unavailable` | locale not translated | the served locale is in `locale`; tell the human |
| `capsule_not_found` | the id is not a published journey | `find_capsule({query, limit:3})`; relay `alternatives` |
