Podcasts about Naturalization

The girlies are back for part two of the immigration series to unpack our modern-day McCarthyism. Starting with a recap of current events (aka The Horrible Things Update), they pick up where they left off in history, discussing Japanese internment, the second Red Scare, post-9/11 surveillance, and how fear of the 'other' has always justified oppression. Digressions include Khloe Kardashian's venture into protein dust and the comforting fact that, as of today, sunlight is still legal to experience. We're going on tour!!!!

The United Nations was founded to promote peace, security, and international cooperation, but critics argue that it has become an inefficient bureaucracy that often works against U.S. interests. In particular, UN agencies and organizations – in which each UN Member State can choose whether or not to participate – have sometimes taken positions in conflict with what some U.S. policy makers regard as important principles and priorities. The Trump Administration recently announced that the United States will no longer participate in the U.N. Human Rights Council (UNHRC), will end all financial support for the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), and may withdraw from the UN Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).Supporters, on the other hand, contend that the U.N. and its affiliated organizations remain a vital forum for diplomacy and that the United States should lead efforts to reform them rather than abandon them.Should the United States push for structural changes within the U.N. and its affiliated entities, or would withdrawal better serve American sovereignty and foreign policy goals? What are the legal and geopolitical implications of either path?

Send us a textSummaryIn this conversation, David Campbell and Ryan McMaken delve into the complexities surrounding birthright citizenship in the United States, particularly focusing on the historical context of the 14th Amendment, the implications of political allegiance, and the role of the Federal Reserve in relation to national debt. They explore the nuances of citizenship laws, the debate over immigration, and the historical interpretations that have shaped current legal frameworks. The discussion highlights the ongoing relevance of these issues in contemporary society and the need for a nuanced understanding of citizenship and jurisdiction.TakeawaysThe 14th Amendment is central to the discussion of birthright citizenship.Birthright citizenship varies significantly across different countries.The U.S. has a more liberal approach to birthright citizenship than most nations.Political allegiance is a debated aspect of the 14th Amendment.Historical context is crucial for understanding current citizenship laws.The complexity of citizenship includes considerations of jurisdiction.The Federal Reserve plays a significant role in managing national debt.Executive orders on citizenship can raise significant legal questions.The relationship between immigration and naturalization is complex and intertwined.Public discourse on citizenship is evolving and becoming more critical.TitlesUnderstanding Birthright CitizenshipThe 14th Amendment: A Historical PerspectivePolitical Allegiance and CitizenshipSound Bites"The 14th Amendment is really what everybody brings up.""The question then is who does this apply to?""It's not entirely clear to me either.""Naturalization and immigration are two separate issues.""What does it mean to be subject to the jurisdiction?""You can buy the book on Amazon or read it for free at Mises.org."Chapters00:00Introduction to Birthright Citizenship06:01Historical Context of the 14th Amendment12:25The Debate on Political Allegiance18:51The Complexity of Citizenship and Jurisdiction24:36The Role of the Federal Reserve and National DebtSupport the show"Wherever you find yourself is exactly and precisely where God wills you to be" Support our show at the following: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2063276/support Follow us on X: @CFC30290 Follow us on Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-3123766 Website: https://clarityfromchaospodcast.buzzsprout.com/ Thanks for listening to Clarity from Chaos

In the 1870s and 1880s, and through the 1920s, it's clear that many legislators and judges did not agree that birthright citizenship applied to everyone born in the borders of the US.

After a long hiatus, we are back with regular podcasts that feature questions from the new USCIS N-400 Application for Naturalization.  In honor of the Bill of Rights Day, December 15, we are pairing the first ten amendments with some questions from the new N-400 Part 9 and some Civics questions.  Here is a pdf of the A Quick Review of the Bill of Rights and the N-400 (2024) Part 9 plus Civics Questions.   Image: Bill of Rights depicted in cartoon format from 1971 Young Citizen teacher's guide transparency. Courtesy: Syracuse University. CLICK IMAGE TO ENLARGE and for teacher printable version. Before we begin, there are four news items: 1)     On September 20, USCIS released their new “One Nation, One People: Civics Test Textbook” for adults preparing to naturalize.  In support of their commitment 2gen civic literacy, USCIS also released “Color Me Civics: U.S. Landmarks and Symbols Coloring Book” in English and Spanish.  You can download these free resources from USCIS. 2) Two new N-400 (2024) Part 9 resources: ·        Pearson ELT USA Team just release a free pdf of the UPDATED Naturalization Speaking Test from Voices of Freedom by Bill Bliss.  Download the test practice.  ·        New Readers Press has just posted a new “Tricky Vocabulary” handout (for explaining vocabulary in the new N-400 part 9):  .  This resource complements Citizenship: Passing the Test Ready for the Interview Student Book 4th Edition by Lynn Weintraub 3)     On December 13, LINCS.ed.gov The 2024 Naturalization Fee Reduction Webinar with Shawn Chakrabarti, a former Education Specialist with the office of Citizenship, USCIS.  Mr. Chakrabarti explained the USCIS naturalization fee structure, highlighting that 9.2 million people are eligible for citizenship, with 4 million likely having limited English proficiency. He detailed the new fee waiver and reduction rules, noting that 80% of LPRs may qualify for fee reductions. Mr. Chakrabarti emphasized the importance of detailed student intakes, partnering with legal service providers, and leveraging digital literacy to navigate the new fee rules. He also encouraged commenting on Federal Register notices to influence future policies.  Although this webinar was not recorded, detailed notes and resources are available on LINCS.ed.gov Civics Education and Citizenship Group under the “FOLLOW UP: 12/13 The 2024 Naturalization Fee Reduction Webinar.” 4)     Finally, a petition titled, Call to Codify Improvements to U.S. Naturalization Test, hosted on the TESOL Advocacy Action Center.  The petition asks USCIS to codify two items in the Federal Register: ·        Intermediate low level of English is the fair and appropriate level for the civics and speaking test. ·        The speaking test which is based on eligibility interview with an USCIS officer should be limited to basic questions. For complex questions, applicants may use interpreters. With just one click, you can virtually sign the petition, which is immediately sent to your US representative and both senators.  Please sign this petition immediately to protect the fairness of the Naturalization interview.

This will be a conversation about how, in the military, individuals from diverse backgrounds can come together under a shared purpose to contribute to something bigger than themselves and serve their nation. The contributions of immigrants who serve and swear allegiance to the nation are recognized and appreciated. So for a little background, non-U.S. citizens may be eligible to apply for naturalization, which is the process by which U.S. citizenship is granted to a lawful permanent resident after meeting the requirements established by Congress, as defined by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. For many, joining the U.S. military offers a fast track to becoming a U.S. citizen. In this episode, Technical Sgt. Timothy Thorpe, a Massachusetts Air National Guard recruiter, and his recruit, Airman Daniel Olubodun will join us to talk about their experience. Airman Olubodun is native to Nigeria, was granted U.S. citizenship during Basic Military Training. For more information about U.S. Citizenship through military service, reach out to a local Air National Guard recruiter or Military One Source has some incredible resources for you to check out. Support is available to service members and their families who have questions about applying for citizenship. You may also call the USCIS toll-free Military Help Line: 877-247-4645.

In this episode, we dive deep into the U.S. Citizenship and Naturalization Interview process. If you're preparing to become a U.S. citizen, understanding what happens during your interview is essential for a smooth experience. We'll walk you through the entire process, from the initial application to the interview questions and the key elements of the civics and English tests. We share tips on how to prepare, common challenges applicants face, and what to expect on the day of your interview. Whether you're about to attend your own interview or just starting the journey toward citizenship, this podcast provides valuable insights to help you succeed.   More Info: Understand and Prepare for the U.S. Citizenship Test

"The 14th Amendment only exists because we all are operating on the idea that it does. It doesn't actually exist." In this conversation, Joel Evan and Brandon Joe Williams discuss various topics, including the 14th Amendment, the United States government as a corporation, and the concept of citizenship. They explore how the 14th Amendment was never legally ratified and how it birthed the Federal Reserve, fiat banking, and other government institutions. They also touch on the differences between common law and equity law, the importance of understanding federal codes, and the benefits of operating as a private motor carrier. Overall, the conversation challenges conventional beliefs about the government and encourages listeners to question the status quo. In this part of the conversation, Brandon Joe Williams discusses the definitions of the terms 'person,' 'naturalization,' and 'national.' He explains that the term 'person' is defined as an individual, trust, estate, partnership, association, company, or corporation. He emphasizes the importance of understanding the definition of 'person' in law. He then delves into the definition of 'naturalization,' which means the conferring of nationality of a state upon a person after birth by any means whatsoever. Williams highlights the power of this definition and how it can be used to confer nationality upon oneself or any organization. Finally, he explains that the term 'national' means an individual or organization owing allegiance to a nation or state. In this conversation, Brandon Joe Williams discusses the concepts of nationality, citizenship, and taxation. He explains the difference between being a citizen and a non-citizen national of the United States and how one can become a non-citizen national. He also delves into the topic of naturalization and how it relates to taxation. Williams emphasizes the importance of understanding these concepts and clarifies misconceptions surrounding them.

It's a maze of a system and sometimes even we have a tough time navigating it. Sometimes even we hit those roadblocks and we're like, best I can tell you to do is talk to your congressperson talk to an ombudsman at the agency.  But so much of it is a waiting game and I think that can be the most frustrating part for clients is they're just so sick of waiting for the bureaucracy.

In this episode, Diana and Nicole discuss finding immigration records for ancestors arriving in the United States after 1906. They provide a timeline of important immigration laws and their impacts, such as the 1906 establishment of the Bureau of Immigration and Naturalization, the 1917 Immigration Act, the 1921 Emergency Quota Act, the 1924 National Origins Act, the 1945 War Brides Act, the 1948 Displaced Persons Act, the 1952 Immigration and Naturalization Act, and the 1965 Immigration and Nationality Act. They explain the importance of using census records, naturalization records, and other U.S. records to gather clues about an ancestor's immigration timeline. They discuss various types of immigration records, including passenger lists, hospital records, detainee lists, and more. Diana and Nicole share a case study on Birger Gustaf Soelberg, tracing his immigration from Sweden to the United States, his residency in Worcester, Massachusetts, his work as a seaman, and his eventual intended emigration to Canada in 1926. They highlight the importance of thorough research in multiple records to piece together an ancestor's immigration story.

It was never Independence Day to me. Always 4th of July. Watching fireworks on the street in front of Burlingame house as a kid. That great trip every year to the Red Devil fireworks stand. Fuzzy memories of seeing fireworks in Guerneville. 9 years old in Kearns Utah. Only allowed sparklers and caps.  We used a hammer to blow up caps, often a whole role at a time. Learning about illegal fireworks at around 11 years old. Here stories about people blowing up toilets with M-80s. The Bicentennial quarters. About 12-13 years old we knew a guy who knew a guy and we would get some firecrackers and bottle rockets. Around 16 years old make the trip to China Town and buy fireworks. Do a deal in a back alley. Big fireworks show at La Jolla Cove freshman year at UCSD. Big fireworks show a much bigger thing here in San Diego than I remember in Burlingame. Fireworks from Kate Sessions Park with synchronized music Shooting bottle rockets from UCSD A-2 into B-16. Must have been left over from the summer. With the kids, always attending a softball or baseball tournament somewhere. Watching fireworks from our home in North Poway.  Little by little they would not get high enough over the hill to see them. Driving to Flaming Gorge WY and seeing the fireworks store right when we passed the state line. Then having leftovers back in Poway. I took them to the hazardous materials dump site. I always wondered if the workers there actually kept them. Then as I became more politically aware and learned more about the true meaning of America's founding, I really started to focus on the Declaration of Independence as a radical, innovative, groundbreaking idea. That we all have rights that precede the govt. And the govt's role is to secure those rights. Excerpts from Declaration of Independence: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. Objections to the King: He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations...

Let's give a warm welcome back to Brandon Joe Williams for part two of our conversation around navigating the complex legal and financial systems that govern our lives. As a revolutionary thinker, lawyer, and the founder of The Amnesty Coalition, he's dedicated his career to empowering individuals with the knowledge and strategies they need to achieve greater autonomy and a more fulfilling life.From understanding the true nature of money and the Federal Reserve to mastering the mechanics of financial endorsements and the business of debt, Brandon has a knack for taking dense, often confusing topics and making them accessible and actionable – common law for the common man.In this episode, we kick things off by demystifying money and exploring its evolution from gold and silver to fiat currency. Brandon then walks us through the nuances of financial endorsements and how to leverage them. We also touch on the legal distinctions between traveling and driving, the ins and outs of property and tax contracts, how we can defer debt essentially forever, and the path to true personal freedom. Brandon's insights are not just theoretical; they're practical, real-world strategies that can help you reclaim control over your life. But we also stress the importance of diplomacy and understanding the interpretations of these laws before you try to wield them.Whether you're looking to understand the financial system better, navigate legal complexities, or simply live a more empowered life, Brandon Joe Williams is here to teach us how to play the game by new (old) rules. If you enjoy this conversation, make sure to check out Brandon's free online course, and tune into part one of our conversation if you haven't done so already.DISCLAIMER: This podcast is presented for educational and exploratory purposes only.

Immigrants to the US can now decide they are not female or male, but a third unspecified gender when applying for citizenship. The US Citizenship and Immigration Services revised its N-400 Application for Naturalization form to provide applicants with the option of selecting “another gender identity” labeled “X,” it announced on Monday. “Historically USCIS forms and associated documents have only offered two gender options, ‘Male (M) and Female (F).' This has created significant barriers for requesters who do not identify with either of those options,” immigration officials said in a news release. “Limiting benefit requesters to two gender options also creates administrative challenges for USCIS when we receive birth certificates or other official government-issued documents with a gender other than M or F.” --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/darien-dunstan3/message

In today's episode of Parsing Immigration Policy, Elizabeth Jacobs, the Center's Director of Regulatory Affairs and Policy, does a deep dive into her recent analysis of the new U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) fee schedule, set to take effect on April 1, 2024.Jacobs discusses how the 2024 fee rule is being leveraged to advance Biden's policy objectives, ignoring the requirement that USCIS fees should be commensurate with the costs of processing specific applications.As USCIS faces increased demands and backlogs, the implications of these fee adjustments extend beyond revenue generation, influencing immigration policies and pathways far into the future.Key takeaways:Fees for immigration services for employers and entrepreneurs are set disproportionately high to offset new discounts and exemptions for other benefits, including USCIS' growing humanitarian docket. This shift in fee determination from a proportional to an ability-to-pay model is reminiscent of Karl Marx's philosophy of "from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs."The majority of naturalization applicants will receive a significant discount, incentivizing certain voter demographics to become naturalized. USCIS will offer nearly a 50 percent discount to all N-400 (Application for Naturalization) applicants who demonstrate their household income is 400 percent of the Federal Poverty Guidelines or less. Depending on size, a household income of as much as $124,800 annually would qualify for this discount. Jacobs estimates that roughly 65 percent of green card holders would qualify for the discount, generating a potential annual loss of revenue of $203 million.The types of immigration benefits subject to a fee waiver are significantly expanded. The rule significantly expanded the benefits that may be exempt from fees altogether – leaving fee-paying applicants and petitioners to cover the costs. USCIS reported forgoing $613 million in revenue in its FY 2016/17 fee review, and an astounding $1.494 billion in its FY 2019/2020 fee review. How much revenue will USCIS forgo as a result of fee waivers?The bottom line? This new fee structure passes significant costs – including the growing costs of the border crisis – to U.S. employers hiring legal foreign workers.In his closing commentary, Mark Krikorian, the Center's Executive Director and host of the podcast, criticizes those on both sides of the immigration debate who have used the recent Baltimore bridge tragedy as an excuse to push their policy agendas.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestElizabeth Jacobs is the Director of Regulatory Affairs and Policy at the Center for Immigration Studies.RelatedDHS Delays Updating USCIS's Fee Schedule, Exacerbating Agency's Financial WoesUSCIS's Fee Rule Inappropriately Transfers Cost of Broken Asylum System to US Employers52 Congressional Lawmakers Protest USCIS's Proposed Fee ScheduleFollowFollow Parsing Immigration Policy on Ricochet, Apple Podcasts, Youtube, Amazon Music, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts.Intro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about the evolution of naturalization laws in the U.S., tracing how these laws have shaped the process of becoming an American citizen from the country's early days to the modern era. By examining specific acts from 1790 through to the 20th century, we shed light on the legal landscape that our ancestors navigated as they sought to establish new lives in America. This exploration not only aids us in understanding the context of our ancestors' experiences but also provides valuable insights into the legal context of naturalization records, which are crucial sources for genealogical research.

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about naturalization records in the United States. We review the genealogical information naturalization records can hold, and discuss various records created in the process. We talk about Declarations of Intention (first papers), Petitions for Naturalization (second or final papers), and Certificates of Naturalization. We also go over the use of census records for clues about naturalization status, including columns for alien status, declaration of intent filed, and naturalized status, across various census years. An example is our ancestor, William Beddoes, and his naturalization in Utah.

The former First Lady spoke to 25 immigrants from 25 nations who became US citizens today. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On July 3, 1975, the Ministry of Justice in Japan responded to an inquiry by Amelia Earhart researcher and investigator Major Joe Gervais. Gervais had sent a letter to the Department of Immigration and Naturalization in Tokyo, operating on the hunch that Earhart had been taken prisoner and held on Saipan during WWII but under an assumed identity. The Ministry of Justice responded, saying the woman in their custody was known to them as Irene Craigmile. This was not a name mentioned by Gervais to the Japanese authorities. So, who is Irene Craigmile? Craigmile and Earhart were acquaintances and pilots who looked similar, but photos show they are two separate people. This begs the question for the “Japanese Capture” theory of Earhart's disappearance: who then went down with the plane that was apparently ditched near Buka Island in Papua New Guinea? Were these two women connected via some secret mission, and is the plane at Buka a version of Earhart's Electra 10-E? These questions and evidence are just a few of the puzzle pieces of the enduring mystery of Earhart's fateful last flight, meticulously stitched together by William “Bill” Pennington Snavely, Jr. in his latest book, Lost in Flight: Amelia Earhart, Giving Cover as a Decoy for a Spy Plane. In 2018, Bill was a guest on our show, where he outlined his research leading to a startling theory of Earhart's plane possibly having crashed near the coast of Matsungan Island near Buka, eventually sinking to a depth of 109 feet. Two main aspects of Bill's investigation that remain novel are that, unlike the other researchers, he calculated his flight tracking starting from the last known location and then traced backward and that his team is the only one with an aircraft to investigate whose characteristics match the Electra. Bill's multiple expeditions to Buka have yielded intriguing evidence supporting his claim, evidence which has previously been kept under wraps due to nondisclosure agreements. However, as his research in the intervening years continued, a new hybrid theory emerged from his discoveries that may solve the disconnect between “Japanese Capture” and the wreckage at Buka. Could it be that a failed reconnaissance mission led to one of the greatest coverups in US history? Bill Snavely is now free to disclose the shocking findings he revealed in his book. Also joining us is longtime friend and fellow podcaster Chris Williamson, whose podcast Chasing Earhart and its companion book, Rabbit Hole: The Vanishing of Amelia Earhart & Fred Noonan, is the definitive interview collection. Prepare to suit up as we dive for the truth behind one of the world's most famous and significant aviation enigmas. Visit our website for a lot more information on this episode.
