Hello,

I need a bit of information that I haven’t really been able to find on the net.  I have heard about citizens of former colonies having the ability to get residency and citizenship in Spain easier and faster than non-eu citizens, but I need more information. Does anyone know where I can find any descriptive information? And does anyone also know if that extends to naturalized citizens of a former colony? My parents were born in mexico and a few years ago I became a naturalized Mexican citizen (I am a US citizen by birth.) and I was wondering if that still counted. TIA! :D

Well Recently The PSOE Government agreed to allow families that fled from the Spanish Civil War and moved to Argentina or Other countries (I am Not sure what others)  They can apply for Citizenship without losing there Nationality they have now (Dual Nationality)

You just apply for Citizenship but must have proof of Family that did flee from the civil war…
