Answer:

Answer

Marrying a U.S. citizen DOES NOT confer automatic citizenship or permanent resident status to the non-citizen spouse. The non-citizen spouse will have to apply following the standard immigration procedures as prescribed by law. http://www.uscis.org

Answer

Marriage to a US Citizen does not automatically qualify an alien for citizenship.

Contact a reputible Immigration attorney for guidence on pursuing citizenship.
