Indian woman gets US citizenship at the age of 99, netizens question American dream

A 99-year-old Indian woman, Daibai, has embarked on a remarkable new journey after being granted US citizenship. Making the announcement, the US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) described Daibai as a "lively" individual.

"They say age is just a number. That seems true for this lively 99-year-old who became a #NewUSCitizen in our Orlando office. Daibai is from India and was excited to take the Oath of Allegiance. She's pictured with her daughter and our officer who swore her in. Congrats Daibai," USCIS said in a post on X (formerly Twitter).

The USCIS also captured the touching moment where the nonagenarian is in a wheelchair and posing with the citizenship certificate. Also in the frame are her daughter and the officer who swore her in.
