In the fiscal year of 2022, 969,380 people became naturalized citizens in the United States. This is an increase from the previous year, when 813,861 people became naturalized citizens. 2020 saw a significant drop, a figure that was likely due to the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

Naturalization is the process by which U.S. citizenship is conferred upon foreign citizens or nationals after fulfilling the requirements established by Congress in the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). After naturalization, foreign-born citizens enjoy nearly all the same benefits, rights and
responsibilities that the Constitution gives to native-born U.S. citizens, including the right to vote.
The fiscal year is the accounting period for the federal government which begins on October 1 and ends on September 30. The fiscal year is designated by the calendar year in which it ends.
