'''Citizens of the United Empire of Earth''' are chosen members of society, selected from [[Civilian]]s. This is a status that has to be earned through active commitment to furthering the interests of the [[UEE]]. This can be achieved through distinguished military service, community service, or application. Convicted criminals are never allowed to become Citizens and the Citizenship can be revoked when a person displays a long history of activities aimed against the UEE.<ref name="robertsspaceindustries.com">{{Cite RSI|text=Comm-Link:Writer's Guide - Part Two|int=Comm-Link:Writer's Guide - Part Two|url=https://robertsspaceindustries.com/comm-link/spectrum-dispatch/12956-Writers-Guide-Part-Two}}</ref>

Officially, Civilian's background is not taken into account when a Citizenship application is reviewed but there are known cases when applicants with criminal family met resistance. On the other hand, as an anonymous public Solicitor has stated: "I wouldn't say that coming from a family of Citizens in good standing necessarily guarantees Citizenship. I've seen situations where it hasn't helped the candidate. They just take it into consideration and are more likely to overlook… less admirable… qualities."<ref>{{Cite RSI|text=Comm-Link:New United - Sins of the Father|int=Comm-Link:New United - Sins of the Father|url=https://robertsspaceindustries.com/comm-link/spectrum-dispatch/12961-NEWS-UPDATE-SINS-OF-THE-FATHER}}</ref>
