Best Answer

No, not immediately. To become a naturalized citizen, you have to fill out form N-400, which requires that the applicant have lived in the United States as a permanent resident while married to an American in the same state for three years. There are more stipulations and there are also different provisions for people in the military or for people who work abroad.
