I was wondering if someone can help me about the 2-year residence in Spain to be eligible for citizenship (nationals of Spanish colonies such as South Americans).

When we say "residence" does it mean a work permit holder only? Or does it include obtaining a student visa (to be eligile for citizenship) so long as this
2-year is uninterrupted and legal?

I would be delighted if someone can enlighten me.
