Question

B) Hector, who has been married to a lawful permanent resident for three years
C) Val, who has worked in the US for twenty years but does not have a green card
D) Li, whose employer has applied for a special visa to allow her to work in the US

Answer 1

Answer:

A) Chris, an immigrant who served honorably in the US Navy during a war

Explanation:

After the attacks on the United States on September 11, 2001, Congress added a provision to the Immigration and Naturalization Act that allows people who are on active duty in the US Armed Forces during wartime, regardless of immigration status, to immediately apply for naturalization as a citizen. Chris, an immigrant who served honorably in the US Navy during a war has the quickest path to citizenship.
