To amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to waive certain naturalization requirements for United States nationals, and for other purposes.

Summary

Creates an alternative path to U.S. citizenship for U.S. nationals who have lived continuously in any State or U.S. outlying possession from birth through approval, letting them naturalize without meeting certain English and continuous-residence tests and with administrative accommodations in outlying possessions. Also allows qualifying children of U.S. citizens who live in outlying possessions to acquire U.S. citizenship by being present and residing there, instead of having to be temporarily present in the United States with lawful admission.

• Creates an alternative naturalization pathway for U.S. nationals who have lived continuously in a State or outlying possession from birth.
• Waives certain English and continuous-residence testing requirements for applicants who use the new alternative pathway.
• Permits USCIS to process applications and hold interviews, oaths, and ceremonies in U.S. outlying possessions and to waive personal interviews in some cases.
• Allows discretionary fee reductions and clarifies continuity-of-residence rules (180+ day absence breaks continuity unless non-abandonment shown).
• Expands child-acquisition rules so qualifying children who reside in outlying possessions can acquire U.S. citizenship without lawful admission to the United States.
• Intended to expedite citizenship for nationals—especially servicemembers—without requiring relocation or extra tests/fees.
• Does not appear to create new federal appropriations or broad program authorizations in the provided text.
• Applies narrowly to U.S. nationals and children of U.S. citizens connected to outlying possessions; it is an alternative route rather than a universal change to naturalization.
