If either of the spouse is a US citizen and another is an alien, once they get married the alien is given the conditional status which is valid for 2 years. 90 days or less before the conditional status expires the US citizen needs to file to remove the conditions using Form I-751 for the alien spouse to get permanent resident status or green card. After three years as a green card holder and if still married the person can apply for US citizenship through US citizen spouse by filing Form N-400.
