EIIC Receives the 2015 USCIS Citizenship and Integration Grant

The Emerald Isle Immigration Center was selected by USCIS to receive a competitive grant that will enable the EIIC to help prepare more permanent residents on their road to citizenship. The EIIC was one of 40 organizations from across the country chosen for funding by the USCIS from a field of 160, and this is the third consecutive cycle the EIIC has been selected. This grant will allow EIIC to provide citizenship instruction to 560 permanent residents and provide naturalization application services to at least 320 permanent residents from around the world.
