Becoming a U.S. citizen can be complicated, but the 1199SEIU Citizenship Program, jointly administered by the 1199SEIU Benefit and Pension Funds and the 1199SEIU Training and Employment Funds, is here to support you as you navigate the application process. Each year, the program helps hundreds of 1199SEIU members become citizens. The program offers counseling, exam and interview prep classes, and workshops to help keep you organized throughout the application process. We’re with you every step of the way, providing:

• Assistance with application preparation for you and your eligible family members;
• One-on-one counseling and legal advice;
• Classes to prepare you for the naturalization interview and test;
• Classes for English as a Second Language (ESL); and
• Help with other needs, such as Green Card renewals, fee waivers and more.

These services are free of charge. The 1199SEIU Training and Employment Funds will reimburse eligible 1199SEIU members up to $600 of the U.S. Citizenship Application Fee.

To apply for this reimbursement, visit www.1199SEIUBenefits.org/MyTEF and select the Citizenship tile to start the process. Eligibility requirements apply.
