The two major ways that one can become a Citizen of the US is by birth- being born on the territory of the US- or by naturalization, that is applying for the citizenship later in life after fulfilling some conditions.

Answer: Birthright citizenship and naturalization.

Citizenship is a particular status a person has within a territory. This condition gives them specific rights and responsibilities.

The citizenship clause of the Fourteenth Amendment states that there are two main ways in which a person can acquire legal citizenship in the U.S.:

  • Birthright citizenship: Being born within the territorial limits of the United States, or born abroad to a U.S. citizen parent (with some other requirements).
  • Naturalization: Applying for citizenship as an immigrant, after fulfilling certain requirements.
