How long does it takes to apply an american citizenship?

Question

Answer 1

It takes about 6-9 months (Sometimes a year)

Answer 2

my husband has his green card. he's had it for 2 years, we are now coming up to reapplying for his 10 year one. I BELIEVE after that he can apply to become a citizen, or just renew his green card and stay a resident.   visajourney.com is a great website/message board. it helped us through the entire process.

Answer 3

I applied in September of 2007,  and my interview is tomorrow. So the whole process took me about 9 months. Might have taken 6 months if I didn't forget to sign my application.

Answer 4

20 years and a test afterwards
