A - Usually NO unless U.S. citizenship is required "in order to comply with law, regulation, or executive order, or required by Federal, State, or local government contract, or which the Attorney General determines to be essential for an employer to do business with an agency or department of the Federal, State, or local government."  See 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(2)(C).  For more information check out http://www.usdoj.gov/crt/osc/htm/best_practices.htm.
