You can become a US citizen if you're a greencard holder and stayed in the US for 5years, 3years if you're married with a US citizen,Have a clean record, no violations, apply for your US citizenship, there's a fee for that and it just went up, study before the exam to make sure you pass,submit all the necessary papers they needed, right now, it kaes a little bit longer since a lot of people applied before the fees goes up but the processing right now ussally takes 12-18months to complete. goodluck!

You can become one if you have American parents, otherwise you can apply for a visa to live there through a US Consulate. Once you've lived there for a long period of time (3 years I think) then you can apply. They look into your past, even things like driving offenses count against you so keep a sparkling clean record! and good luck

you have to become a green card holder first, then with 5 years as a green card holder you are eligible to apply for naturalization. Green cards can be obtained through employment or or by u.s. citizen or green card holding family members, dependent on the family relation.

If you are currently here illegally, you will never be able to be a police officer without committing identity theft. Then, you will go to prison when it's discovered.

if you already have a green card you can apply for citizenship and in a year or so you can pledge to become a us citizen
if you dont have a green card you should apply for one.
