The INS may seek denaturalization if the applicant made a false oral statement under oath (regardless of whether the testimony is material) with the subjective intent of obtaining immigration benefits. Alternatively, the INS may seek denaturalization if the applicant procured naturalization by concealment or willful misrepresentation of a material fact. In either case, the INS must prove its complaint by clear, unequivocal, and convincing evidence.As the reference goes on to explain, such evidence must be established in either a judicial or an administrative proceeding; however, the naturalized citizen may appeal for judicial review of any adverse decision. In other words, every citizen has a right to trial in a court of law.
The Constitution is our best friend; it is the head that whispers warnings against doing things that our emotions scream at us to do.
