General Naturalization Provisions: The basic
requirements for naturalization that every applicant must meet, unless a member
of a special class. General provisions require an applicant to be at least 18
years of age and a lawful permanent resident with five years of continuous
residence in the United States, have been physically present in the country for
half that period, and establish good moral character for at least that period.
Geographic Area of Chargeability: Any one of five regions (Africa, East
Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean, Near East and South Asia, and the former
Soviet Union and Eastern Europe) into which the world is divided for the initial
admission of refugees to the United States. Annual consultations between the
Executive Branch and the Congress determine the ceiling on the number of
refugees who can be admitted to the United States from each area. Beginning in
fiscal year 1987, an unallocated reserve was incorporated into the admission
ceilings.
