Form N-336 for Newark Residents

Newark permanent residents applying for U.S. citizenship through N-336 are scheduled for their naturalization interview at the USCIS Columbus Field Office (covering Licking County and most of Central Ohio). We prepare your application packet, organize your tax transcripts and travel history, and walk you through the civics test questions ahead of your interview date.

Our office serves Newark applicants throughout Licking County, including families connected to Newark City Schools and workers around Licking Memorial Hospital. Clients often come to us after receiving a USCIS notice, preparing for a family petition, renewing documents for work, or trying to understand which records must be translated before filing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Form N-336 and when should I file it?+

Form N-336 is a request for a hearing before a USCIS officer after your N-400 naturalization application was denied. You have exactly 30 days from the date on your denial notice to file N-336. Missing this deadline means you lose the right to a hearing. Contact Asal Multi Services immediately if you receive a denial notice.

What are the most common reasons N-400 applications are denied?+

Common reasons for N-400 denial include failing the English language or civics test, not meeting the continuous residence or physical presence requirements, a criminal history affecting good moral character, or failure to file taxes or pay child support. An N-336 hearing gives you the opportunity to address these issues with additional evidence.

What happens at an N-336 hearing?+

An N-336 hearing is conducted by a senior USCIS officer who was not involved in the original denial decision. You will have the opportunity to present new evidence, correct errors, retake any failed tests, and explain your case. The officer will issue a new decision — either approving your naturalization or upholding the denial.

If my N-336 hearing is also denied, what are my options?+

If USCIS denies your N-336 hearing, you have the right to file a petition for review in federal district court within 120 days. This requires legal representation. Asal Multi Services can help you prepare your N-336 filing and, if needed, refer you to immigration attorneys who handle federal court naturalization cases.
