Task

2. How US citizenship works, next to two other countries

Required

How a person becomes a US citizen, the rights, duties and obligations that come with it, and how those compare with two other countries.

Notes and warnings

Note. Two other countries, not one. The comparison is the substance of this requirement: a description of US citizenship on its own does not meet it.

Where this step comes from
