Title: Citizenship and Naturalization and Other Related Flexibilities 
Abstract:

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will propose to amend its regulations governing citizenship and naturalization. This includes clarifying the testing requirements, updating eligibility requirements, and proposing amendments to clarify definitions. DHS will also propose to amend other immigration benefit provisions, such as certain provisions related to adjustment of status and waivers of inadmissibility that can affect naturalization and acquisition of citizenship. In addition, DHS will propose removing certain outdated provisions and amending other provisions to align with current statutory framework, such as updating the adoption-related regulatory provisions consistent with the Intercountry Adoption Universal Accreditation Act of 2012.
