Answer
- B Naturalize
- D Be born in the United States, under the conditions set by the 14th Amendment
Explanation
USCIS accepts: being born in the United States under the conditions set by the 14th Amendment, naturalizing, and deriving citizenship (for example children of U.S. citizens under conditions set by Congress). Marriage does not confer citizenship, but it shortens the waiting period for naturalization from five to three years. No one becomes a citizen automatically through residence.
