Such review shall be de novo, and the court shall make its own findings of fact and conclusions of law and shall, at the request of the petitioner, conduct a hearing de novo on the application.”

Frazier“Section 1421(c) expressly mandates that an action seeking judicial review of the denial of an application for naturalization must be brought in “the United States district court for the district in which such person resides.” It is abundantly clear that an action brought under § 1421(c) can be brought only in the district where the applicant resides, regardless of what the general federal venue statutes might otherwise provide.”
