To become a citizen, the following two options apply:

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

(Note: While marrying a U.S. citizen can accelerate the path to citizenship, it does not itself grant citizenship. The foreign-born spouse must still go through the naturalization process.)
