hello everyone,

just wanted to ask about getting residency and eventual citizenship in spain. my mom just got spanish citizenship through the “ley de memoria.” i am very interested in living in spain but i cannot obtain spanish citizenship because she got it through her grandfather who migrated before 1936.

i read that i am entitled to spanish citizenship after one year since both my mom and grandfather are spanish citizens. is this correct? if so, i would like to know if i am entitled to a residence permit due to my spanish lineage. which one would be the best for me to apply for in order to legally live in spain? i am 26 years old.

thanks for your help!
