Question: Can a non-U.S. Citizen join the United States Military?
Answer: Yes. A non-citizen can enlist in the military. However, federal law
prohibits non-citizens from becoming commission or warrant officers.
In order for a non-citizen to enlist in the military, he/she must first be a
legal immigrant (with a green card), permamently residing in the United
States. It's important to note that the military cannot and will not assist
in the immigration process. One must immigrate first, using normal
immigration quotas and procedures, and -- once they've established an
address in the United States -- they can find a recruiter's office and apply
for enlistment.
