Question

which of the following are barriers that people face when going through the naturalization process?
choose 2 answers:
a they deal with quotas that favor immigrants from certain countries.
b they must have a high school education or equivalent before applying.
c they have to wait years to get through the naturalization process.
d they face wait times to get lawful permanent residence.

Explanation:

• Option A: Quotas favoring immigrants from certain countries create barriers as they limit opportunities for others, affecting the naturalization process.
• Option C: Long wait times during the naturalization process are a significant barrier for applicants.
• Option B: A high school education or equivalent is a requirement, not a barrier (it's a standard criterion, not an obstacle in the sense of restriction like wait times or quotas).
• Option D: Wait times for lawful permanent residence are related to gaining residency, not directly the naturalization process barriers (naturalization is after residency in many cases, and this option focuses on residency wait times).

Answer:

A. They deal with quotas that favor immigrants from certain countries.
C. They have to wait years to get through the naturalization process.
