us citizenship from india

Short answer

To obtain U.S. citizenship from India through a CR-1/IR-1 Spouse Visa, you must first apply for the visa, which involves submitting Form I-130, paying a fee of approximately $535, and providing documents like marriage certificates and proof of citizenship. The process can take 10-14 months. After obtaining the visa and residing in the U.S. for three years (if CR-1) or five years (if IR-1), you can apply for citizenship. Verify current rules on official government or embassy sites as requirements change.
