Abstract: This memo explains the method we at the University of Southern California (USC) Center for the Study of Immigrant Integration (CSII) use to estimate the eligible-to-naturalize population in the United States. This necessarily involves a rather lengthy discussion of estimating the undocumented population; that is the first and most crucial step to estimating the eligible-to-naturalize since once that group is determined, the remainder of the non-citizen foreign-born residents are mostly Lawful Permanent Residents (LPRs) and the criteria that can then be applied to that group to determine LPRs eligible to naturalize is fairly straightforward.
