New citizens in Jacksonville

Jacksonville, FL. — On Sunday, during the Jacksonville Jaguars half time, a special naturalization ceremony will take place welcoming 50 of America’s new citizens from 24 different countries spanning from Afghanistan to Venezuela.

A new version of the test to become a citizen has been release.

Starting December 1, applicants for U.S. citizenship will have to correctly answer at least 12 of 20 questions posed by immigration officials.

The current civics test requires immigrants to correctly answer 6 questions out of a total of 10.
