Current Oath of Citizenship in the United States of America
What is required now!
I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce
and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince,
potentate, state, or sovereignty of whom or which I have
heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend
the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all
enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and
allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United
States when required by law; that I will perform noncombatant service in
the Armed Forces of the United States when required by the law; that I
will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when
required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely without any
mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God. In acknowledgement whereof I have hereunto affixed my signature.
In some cases, INS allows the oath to be taken without the
clauses:
"… that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when
required by law; that I will perform non-combatant service in the Armed
Forces of the United States when required by law."
