There is an option to adjust status from conditional status to permanent resident status before the conditional status validity of two years is over. Once you get a green card to become a US citizen you need to have had the green card with continuous physical presence in US for minimum period of 5 years and above the age of 18 years. Using the US Immigration Form N-400 the naturalization process can be started end of which you will be given the citizenship certificate as proof that you are a US citizen.
