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..
