During these workshops, qualified legal partners can help eligible applicants complete, review, and submit Form N-400, answer questions about the application process, and provide guidance on filing fees, fee reductions, or fee waivers when applicable.

When additional legal assistance is needed, CCT can also connect clients with trusted immigration legal service providers for further support.
