Simplest answer - 2 years and 9 months... but there are several things to be aware of so for your own knowledge, go to USCIS website and read about I-751 and N-400 applications...

2 years 9 months to get citizenship which is what you asked specifically about. However, you need to remove conditions after 1 year 9 months after you receive your GC; that's why I mentioned I-751. Please read the instructions that way you are prepared when the time comes.

Upon approval of your application, you will receive a 2 year GC and you will then need to file I-751 and provide all the required documentation to "remove conditions" (this happens after 1 year and 9 months). Once you are approved, you will receive your 10 year GC and once you get to 2 years and 9 months, you will need to file the N-400 application for naturalization/citizenship.
