Hello
I am living in Spain for 10 years and have tarjeta de residencia LARGA DURACION. I am going to file an application for nationality this november (november 2012 I've got appointment for nationality application ) .At the same time , i ve got a better job contract in Germany and i am thinking to change my residence card to TARJETA DE RESIDENCIA CE .
The confusion is that

Would it effect my nationality application ?
Should i first file a (nationality) application and then change my residence category to Tarjeta de residencia CE ?
or what should i do ???

Hopefully you ll guide

Regards : )

Hello,

You can file your nationality application in November even if you apply for the tarjeta de residencia de larga duracion CE in the meantime, so it is easier for you to work in Germany. I recommend you to change your residence card to Larga Duracion CE whenever you like so you do not lose that job opportunity in Germany. As having lived in Spain for 10 years under a regular status, you are still in your right to apply for the Spanish nationlity due to residency when the time comes.

Regards,
