obtaining spanish citizenship
hi there,
My mom is a spanish citizen she got her spanish passport before she died in march 2010,she got her spanish passport because my grandfather
is a pure spanish from sevilla spain.My question is here how can i apply for spanish citizen im here in philippines and cherish to go to spain and eventually work and reside there.
2 years include my student visa?
I already spent 1 year in spain as a student. I will have my revision of visa to be "working" this year. After one year more under my working visa, will i be able to apply for a citizenship? I am a Philippine passport holder.
Thanks
Acquisition of Spanish Nationality
Good day!
I am hoping you may have the answer to my question.
I have been in touch with the Spanish Embassy here in the Philippines, since my grandmother is a Spanish Citizen, we are able to acquire Spanish Nationality as well but we must reside in Spain for one year. And they said that our residency must be continuous.
I asked them if we may leave the country within that year and if so, how long? Sadly they have told me that they cannot provide me with that information. Since you have experience with such cases, would you know the answer to this? I would like to submit my application to the Spanish Civil Registry then take a course in the US for 3 months then return to Spain. Also, I would like to go the Philippines for a few weeks for holidays during the Christmas season. Would that still be considered as continuous residency?
Hope to hear from you soon!

I just want to clarify the following:
a. Is this the non-lucrative residence visa?
b. I was informed by the consulate in the Philippines that the processing for the residency card would be within my first three months in Spain. What documents are required? The Spanish Consulate only gave me back my passport with the stamped residency visa.
Your help on the matter is greatly appreciated.

I am applying to obtain my Spanish citizenship by obtaining a resident visa and reside in spain for 1 year.
I have completed my requirements however, someone has mentioned that the petitioner which is my fathers needs to be in SPAIN in order for me to be approved the residency permit i would like to know how true this is? my father is old and cannot travel..
Can i just go on live in spain even if my father resides here in PH? and obtain my spanish citizenship?
Hoping for your response.. desperately
thank you
hello pumpkid
regarding your application i suggest that you shud tell the embassy about the status f your father that he cant travell bec.he is to old,and is your mom still in spain? or is she holding spanish passport?i think you can apply for your spanish residency coz your father is holding a spanish passport and you can prove it to them,(thats what i can see in your status) i think you can recover your citizenship in spain..just reply in this thread if everything is ok..goodluck for your application..
Australian with Filipino/Spanish grandparents - do I qualify for citizenship?
Hello I'm Australian with Filipino grandmother and Filipino grandfather who has Spanish lineage. Do I qualify for Spanish citizenship after two years residency? I have lived in Spain while on a UK 2 year visa and was able to spend time with family there also, I'd like to return.
Thank you for taking the time to respond,

Processing of citizenship
Hi,
I am a Spanish citizen registered under my fathers Libro de familia in Manila Philippines. Now I want to give my son the citizenship as well. The concern is, I got married and now annulled to a filipino citizen. This marriage was never registered in the Spanish consulate. But in my son´s birth certificate this will show. I am now living in Vienna Austria and will be visiting Manila for 3 weeks to fix my sons` citizenship and bring him together with me here. I wanted to know how long is the processing time of my son´s citizenship? what are the requirements? is it possible to fix his citizenship in advance (while in Vienna) to fast tract the processing. I wish that we fly together back here since he is only 9 years old. Hoping for your response. Since I already emailed the Spanish embassy and still no reply. =(
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Theresa
Transferring Spanish Nationality to Filipino Children (not born in Spain)
Hi Patricia,
My Mom is a Filipino who wants to move to Spain to get the Spanish Nationality. I understand the requirements of living there for 2 years.
My questions is that if she acquires her nationality after 2 years, can she transfer her nationality to her children (above 18) who are Filipinos, but not born in Spain nor of Spanish origin?
Kindly elaborate. Thank you in advance!
filipino married to spanish
My wife is Spanish living in the Philippines. She was able to gain her citizenship because her grandfather was born in Spain. Anyway, our eldest daughter is planning to study in Spain for College. She is a spanish citizen aslo because of my wife. I know I have to live there for one year. does the one year living there mean I can not leave Spain for 365 days or does it mean I live in Spain, Pay taxes etc in Spain but I can leave the country as long as majority of my time in the year is in Spain. I currently work for a spanish company in The Philipines and they are willing to hire me in spain but I need to travel a lot and still oversee the Philippine operations from time to time. So I will not be qualified if I can not leave Spain for one year. Anyone can give advice? Thanks
Study in Spain and Visa Legalities
Hi All,
I will be studying in Spain for a Masters degree next year. I hold a Filipino Passport. While browsing I was informed that Filipino individuals can get a Spanish Citizenship for only two years.
Can I apply directly while arriving there(in Spain) since the length of stay for my schooling is a bit more than 2 years. Also, will I be able to acquire dual citizenship or are there other options to retain my Filipino Citizenship.
Thanks in advance :)
