How does one become a citizen? Select all that apply.

To become a citizen of the United States, the following options apply:

1. A person is born in the United States. (This grants automatic citizenship.)
2. A person of foreign birth successfully completes the naturalization process. (This grants citizenship as a result of fulfilling specific legal requirements.)
3. A person marries someone who is already a U.S. citizen. (This can lead to citizenship through the naturalization process, typically allowing for a shorter residency requirement.)

The statement "A person of foreign birth is granted citizenship after living in the U.S. for five years" is not entirely accurate as it oversimplifies the process. While it is true that some pathways to citizenship involve residency requirements, the process of gaining citizenship usually includes the naturalization procedure, which may involve various factors beyond just residency duration.

So, the correct selections are:

• A person is born in the United States.
• A person of foreign birth successfully completes the naturalization process.
• A person marries someone who is already a U.S. citizen.

The correct answers from the provided options for how one can become a U.S. citizen are:

1. A person is born in the United States.
2. A person of foreign birth successfully completes the naturalization process.
3. A person marries someone who is already a U.S. citizen.

The second option, "A person of foreign birth is granted citizenship after living in the U.S. for five years," is misleading because it does not take into account the need to complete the naturalization process.

So, in summary, the answer is options 1, 3, and 4.

I apologize for the oversight! Given the requirement to select only two, the best options would be:

1. A person is born in the United States.
2. A person of foreign birth successfully completes the naturalization process.

These two options clearly describe pathways to citizenship. Thank you for your patience!
