Answer 3

Your mother needs to become a US citizen in order to be able to apply for a passport.

Usually, the process of becoming a US citizen means you have to pass an English language test, but if your mother is old enough, the language test may be waived.

"If you are over 50 years old and have lived in the United States as a Permanent Resident for periods totaling at least 20 years, you do not have to take the English test. You do have to take the civics test in the language of your choice."

"If you are over 55 years old and have lived in the United States as a Permanent Resident for periods totaling at least 15 years, you do not have to take the English test. You do have to take the civics test in the language of your choice."

"If you are over 65 years old and have lived in the United States as a Permanent Resident for periods totaling at least 20 years, you do not have to take the English test, but you do have to take a simpler version of the civics test in the language of your choice."

Answer 6

Well in order to get an US passport you must be an American Citizen, if she isnt he must take a naturalization to become an american citizen, this includes basic knowledge of the US government ex. are the 3 branches of the goverment, presidents, basic history of America, you know the common stuff such as the 13 orginal states. The test also requires that person must be able to speak understand able english, they will tell you to read a passage of some sore and she must be able to read it, but it doesnt not have to be in perfect english. She also must be able to write sentences in english
