Legal disclaimer
For informational purposes only.
Residency Clock provides estimates and planning milestones to help you stay organized. It is not legal advice, does not determine eligibility, and does not create an attorney–client relationship. For case-specific guidance, consult a qualified immigration attorney.
What we provide
Calendar math, countdowns, and signals based on the dates you enter. Results are presented as estimates and planning milestones — they may require review and can change as your situation or U.S. immigration rules evolve.
What we don't provide
We do not determine whether you are eligible to naturalize, confirm continuous residence, evaluate good moral character, or interpret your individual circumstances. Those are decisions for USCIS and for a qualified attorney advising you directly.
USCIS is the source of truth
All filing rules, deadlines, and eligibility requirements are governed by USCIS. Refer to uscis.gov/n-400 and the official USCIS Policy Manual for current rules.
When in doubt
If a date, signal, or score in Residency Clock suggests something may require review, treat it as a prompt to learn more — not a conclusion. A qualified immigration attorney can give you guidance for your specific case.
By using Residency Clock you acknowledge that the information shown is for planning purposes only and that you remain responsible for verifying any date or decision that affects your immigration status.
