报告摘要
- In the United States, approximately two-thirds (68%) of legal Mexican immigrants are not U.S. citizens, with a naturalization rate of about 36%. This rate is lower than that of immigrants from other countries.
- Key reasons cited for not naturalizing include language barriers (e.g., lack of English proficiency), financial costs (naturalization application fee), and difficulty with citizenship tests.
- Trends show an overall increase in naturalization rates, but Mexican immigrants lag behind, partly due to factors like geographic ties to Mexico and lower awareness of dual citizenship opportunities.
- The report, based on survey and census data, explores barriers and motivations for naturalization among Hispanics, highlighting personal and administrative challenges as major obstacles.
