General five-year naturalisation (Form N-400)

The main naturalisation route for lawful permanent residents generally requires five years as an LPR, continuous residence, the required physical presence, residence in the USCIS district, good moral character, English and civics requirements, and an oath. Five years alone does not automatically create US citizenship.
