Here are the potential factors from your list that can prevent a migrant from becoming a naturalized citizen:

1. **Having a criminal record** - Certain convictions can disqualify an individual from naturalization, especially if they are categorized as serious crimes.

The other points you mentioned do not typically prevent naturalization:

2. **Being a lawful permanent resident** - This is actually a requirement for naturalization, as one must be a lawful permanent resident (green card holder) to apply.

3. **Getting a speeding ticket** - Minor traffic violations generally do not impact eligibility for naturalization.

4. **Moving to a U.S. territory** - This does not affect naturalization eligibility; however, it's important to maintain residency requirements.

In summary, having a criminal record is a significant factor that can prevent naturalization.
