Abstract: In recent years USCIS has been authorized to expend funds that are collected for adjudication and naturalization services and deposited into the Immigration Examination Fee Account for the Citizenship and Integration Grant Program (CIGP). See, e.g., Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2016, Title V, sec. 538. USCIS is implementing an assessment of the effectiveness and an ongoing evaluation of citizenship education and naturalization outcomes for grant program participants. To support this assessment, USCIS needs to collect and analyze the responses to a number of data elements as outlined on the attached survey. USCIS publicly reports the success of grant recipients. The grant recipient survey will provide the information necessary to monitor the grant program including accomplishments, progress meeting goals, progress of the sub-awardee organization (if applicable), identify challenges in meeting goals, staff and/or organizational development activities, student assessment and progress, and promising practices.
