Mexico URGES Immigrants To Apply For Citizenship Before Trump Enters White HouseMany illegal immigrants are concerned about what the future will hold for them once Trump takes office in January. And so Mexico is preparing now. They’re advising Mexican citizens to apply for citizenship now, before Trump’s inauguration,
so they’ll have a better chance of getting around what Mexico suspects will be tougher immigration policies from the Trump administration.

featured advice from Ambassador Carlos Sada Solana, who urges Mexicans who want to immigrate to the United States to apply for citizenship now, and immigrate legally so they can avoid deportation. “It’s one of the very important protection actions to become citizens, because then
they’re no longer subject to deportation processes and on the other hand, they don’t lose Mexican citizenship,” Solana said. According to Solana, many Mexican immigrants have legal status, and are eligible for citizenship, but are choosing not to apply. He claims that they find citizenship unnecessary, don’t plan to stay permanently in the United States, don’t speak English, or don’t have enough information on the citizenship process.
