I was told if one's application for Portuguese citizenship is approved then
citizenship will extend to one's children. So yes, if your father becomes a
Portuguese citizen you will be able to apply as well. I'm just beginning
this process so you might want to get information from this link...

Check the forum/web board. The information is there, including who needs to
pass a language test. Representing the name change in a citizenship
application is beyond the scope of this list. We mainly deal with our
ancestry and the deceased! LOL

find what it takes.

I understood the same thing John Raposo did. I'm the great-granddaughter
of the immigrant, so I don't qualify. My dad would have to become a
Portuguese citizen. He's not interested. They don't have a bridge to
drive his motor home/recreational vehicle there, so he's not going anywhere

I also seem to have misunderstood my local Portuguese Consul. He told me that I
needed to be either the son or grandson of a Portuguese citizen in order to
become a Portuguese citizen. I qualified and became a citizen; the process only
took two weeks but getting a passport and identity card took

Well, Steve, that's the media for you. I have been interviewed for
newspapers and then the article is written in such a way (with a quote
completely out of context) that the article is dead wrong. Makes one

No, you can be a US citizen and be a citizen of an EU country. The US sees
you just as a US citizen like anyone else. I recently completed a project
for a person who
was granted Italian citizenship through the grandparents. Their rules
differ from Portugal in that they don't require the residency
Does this mean for dual citizenship or the requirement to renounce one
citizenship for the other?

To become a Portuguese citizen is also to become a Europe Union citizen
since Portugal is a member state. This means that you are able to recieive
all benefits they offer. There is a EU Health Insurance Card that

What is the reason you would want to become a Portuguese citizen? Do not
