A: You don't have to apply for citizenship. You can choose to simply renew your greencard. If you would like to become a citizen, it's important to make sure you are eligible. Some reasons that might make an applicant ineligible can lead to removal and not just a denial of the application. So it's important to have a consultation with an attorney first.
