It seems like the answer is no. You become an EU citizen when you are a citizen of an EU member. Italian citizens are all EU citizens because Italy is an EU member. You cannot obtain EU citizenship without becoming a citizen of a specific member nation of the EU. Unfortunately, you cannot apply for Italian citizenship based upon same-sex marriage to a citizen of Italy since Italy does not currently recognize same-sex marriages. You can, however, apply for Italian citizenship by naturalization as an individual without relying upon your marriage to an Italian. You must legally reside in Italy for 10 years before applying for naturalization. Another option is for you and your Italian husband to move to another EU country and both apply for citizenship there, but this might be more difficult or take more time. Your family can apply for Belgian citizenship after only 2 years of legal residence, for example. However, it is likely that Italy will recognize same-sex marriage before ten years from now. If Italy does begin to recognize same-sex marriage, then you would need to reside legally in Italy for 2 years after marriage before applying, or be married to an Italian for 3 years if you live abroad. That timeframe is likely to be retroactive, especially is same-sex marriage is legalized by court decision rather than legislatively.
Consult an immigration attorney before the marriage! There are certain forms and procedures that have to be followed in order for the citizenship to be granted. The first step is to get a green card. Citizenship requires a number of years of residency, filing the applications and passing a test. Then one can be sworn in as a citizen.
The best choice would be to file for and become a US citizen before entering into a marriage with a non US citizen, regardless of his or her immigration status.
Basic criteria to be eligible for US citizenship is to be a green card holder and above 18 years of age. Through the marriage to a US citizen the spouse can get green card after the third anniversary. Following which he or she qualifies to apply for US citizenship using the immigration Form N-400 called the naturalization process.
A delay of five years is quite common before acquiring French citizenship after marriage. You have to be granted French citizenship before applying for a French passport, and this is not at all automatic. To discourage bogus unions, the French are asking for proof of a long-term common life, plus evidence of integration into mainstream society (i.e. speaking French, working, etc..).
If you are going to try and use a wrong name , and which is not at all your legal name . then there very good chances for this marriage not to be legal, as you are getting witnesses to sign false facts on the marriage certificate ,.
Sure, there are no restrictions on marriage. However, being married does not automatically change one's visa status or citizenship. Make sure you understand the requirements to become a legal resident so that you are not separated from your spouse by INS!
A common question about immigration is, "when can I file for citizenship." Before you can apply for U.S. citizenship under the immigration law with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services - USCIS (formerly INS), you must first have a green card or permanent residence. If you received your green card through marriage to a U.S. citizen, you may be able to apply for citizenship through naturalization after having your green card for three years. In other situations, you must wait five years.
A person have two options through which he/she can become a US citizen. 1. Person born to US citizen parents, enough if one parent is a citizen, is a US citizen by birth. As a proof for his/her citizenship they need to apply for the citizenship certificate using the US immigration Form N-600 before they are 18 years old or married. 2.Through the naturalization process a person can become a US citizen by applying for US citizenship using the immigration Form N-400 after the age of 18 years.
They have to live here 7 years before trying for congress.
Only if the other country does not ask you to renounce your US citizenship (e.g. Norway, Denmark, Spain and Luxembourg require you to renounce your US citizenship if you want to obtain their citizenship).
