Easier Citizenship for Military Members and Families

This act aims to simplify the process of obtaining U.S. citizenship for individuals serving in the U.S. military and their immediate families. It establishes special procedures and an advisory committee to ensure veterans and their families are not deported without proper case review, and facilitates their access to veteran benefits.
Key points
Establishes an advisory committee to review deportation cases of military members, veterans, and their families before final decisions are made.
Streamlines the U.S. citizenship application process for active-duty military personnel, their spouses, and minor children, including training for recruiters and expedited application processing.
Requires a list of countries unwilling to repatriate their citizens after U.S. military service and a study on deported non-citizen veterans.
