Hi, this is a little embarrassing but here goes. I currently have a Citizenship application in progress. My Indian Passport, PR card, and US Visa are all expired. I was hoping I could get my Citizenship soon and it would be fine, but it is taking longer than expected.

If I wanted to go to the US in just over a month, would it be possible? What would be the best way to go about it? Would I need to renew passport and visa for another 10 years, or are there shorter options?

No, it's not currenly possible for you to enter the US.

You would need to renew your Indian passport and obtain a US visa in order to be allowed to enter the US.

Alternatively you would need to wait until you are a Canadian citizen and then obtain a Canadian passport.
 
Thanks. Sorry, I should have phrased it better. Would it be possible to obtain the documents needed in a month? Also, since I will (hopefully) be getting Citizenship soon, are there other options besides full 10-year renewals?

I'm not clear what you mean by "other options besides a full 10-year renewals". If you don't have Canadian citizenship and a Canadian passport, you need to have a valid passport from your home country and a valid US visa to travel to the US.

I have no idea how long it will take you to get a new passport from your home country. I don't think it's at all realistic to get a new US visa in 1 month.
