    Hello,

    Please read my replies to your specific questions:

    1 - As a Portuguese national, she would not give up her nationality, as dual citizenship is allowed for Portuguese citizens. She can apply for Spanish nationality after two years residing in Spain. Therefore, she can apply right away as she has spent already 5 years in Spain. She will hold dual nationality but will have to use the one in connection with the country where she usually resides.
    2 - Yes, that is true. In the event she was Spanish at the time you got married, you could apply for Spanish citizenship. Otherwise, you need to wait for 10 years of legal residence.
    3 - No, at least in Spain there is no such Law.

    If you need to discuss any of the answers above please feel free to e-mail me by clicking on my profile.
