You must immediately apply for a permanent resident status.
No. He or she must still apply for permanent resident status and then citizenship as required by US immigration laws.
No, you do not.Marrying a US citizen never automatically makes you a citizen- however, it does speed up the process if you are trying to naturalize. Normally, a legal resident has to wait 5 years before they can apply for US citizenship; if a legal resident marries a US citizen, this is shortened to 3 years.
Getting married to a U.S. citizen will not make you a legal resident. If you are in the U.S. legally you can file to adjust your status to a legal resident. If you are in the U.S. illegally, getting married to a U.S. citizen will not help. You will need to go back to your country and apply for either a K1 fiance visa or a K3 spousal visa.
No, if you apply an Alien Relative I-129 form and/or I-485 form then you are on your way to becoming a Legal Resident at least 3 years before applying for I-405
If your legal resident status was obtained through marriage to a US citizen, you can apply for citizenship as early as 2 years and 9 months after you were granted permanent residency. If your legal resident status was obtained through means other than marriage to a US citizen, you may apply as early as 4 years and 9 months after you were granted permanent residency. Once you apply, it takes between 6 and 9 months to process.
