No, it doesn't make them a citizen if they marry one. I am a German citizen with a permanent resident green card and married a solider. It didn't make me a US citizen like most people would think. A person in this situation still has to wait for 5 years in Permanent Resident status and then apply for citizenship.

IF YOU MARRY A MEXICAN, HE DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY BECOME AN AMERICAN CITIZEN. THE ONLY THING THAT MARRAIGE ESTABLISHES WHEN YOU MARRY A MEXICAN IS PERMANENT RESIDENT ALIEN STATUS FOR HIM. HE CAN ONLY KEEP THIS IF YOU REMAIN MARRIED FOR A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF YEARS. IF HE WISHES TO BECOME A CITIZEN, HE MUST TAKE THE TEST AND PASS. I married an illegal Mexican immigrant and I was told by an immigration officer that he can be deported until we have been approved for a visa number, but that some immigration officers will be lenient if the immigrant has papers with him showing that the process is underway.

I am adopted by two U.S. Citizens and lived in the U.S for 25 years and am a permanent resident but lost my card Can I marry a citizen and become a citizen automatically or at least quicker?
What card did you lose? Green card? If you were adopted by US citizens, you are already a US citizen, not merely a permanent resident. Getting married does nothing for improving your status. I'd go see an (immigration) attorney and order copies of your documentation. This shouldn't be too hard to get if you had them originally. Good luck.

If the marriage is found to be valid it takes a minimum of 6-18 months to obtain permanent residence status (green card).

Persons who are in the US illegally are not eligible for permanent resident status and citizenship even if they marry a US citizen.
