		<description>Hello Mark,

Great website. I have a few doubts regarding the euro citizenship.
Suppose if I am studying in one of the member nations of the EU on a student visa. I am also a football player and would like to play football on a professional level with a club. And I would like to get a passport of the country I am playing in for this reason since there are some rules regarding playing football professionally in Europe and there are some advantages of having an EU passport. I also at the same time happen to be a citizen of another country, India.
Is there any chance I could be eligible for citizenship in the European country I am studying in? If not, as a footballer or as a student, can I get a citizenship through some other way?

Thanks a lot for your help, Mark. Truly appreciate it.</description>

		<description>I do understand how you feel but this is the law. I know many people that have lived in the USA, even from rich Canada and have had to go home once their visa has expired. Lok you need to try to get a company to sponsor you, and get a work visa for the EU this is the only way I can think of for you to get a visa. My brother was able to live in the UK for many years on a work visa and they eventually gave him citizenship.

So there are many ways to get a EU visa but for you, someone educated I recommend a work visa. Focus on this. 

Albania is not a bad place to live. I would live there, but again the whole thing is economics, how can you make your way in this world. This is the question that we all have to discover the answer to.  However, I would say it is not as dependent on poltical boarders as much as skill set which you develop.</description>

		<description>I am an Albanian citizen 24-year-old. I have been living in Greece from 1997 until 2007 when i was granted a uk student visa under tiers category. I stayed in UK one year and in 2008 went back to Albania were I finished my university studies. three months ago I came to Greece with my Albanian passport but I don&#039;t have anymore the right to live and work here in Greece, since I left the country for UK.
It seems to me unfair after living 10 years legally within the EU and finishing the high school within the EU now not to be able to live within the EU anymore but only visit it as a tourist. I want to go and small my head at the wall when I think that I have to go back to Albania to make my living. Where can I complain about what is happening here. I can&#039;t stay here in Greece anymore, I cant go back to UK because I don&#039;t qualify to be granted a visa of any category and I cant more legally to any other country within the Eu to work and live. Am I destined to go back in Albania which I left since when i was just a little child?</description>

		<description>Why not Brazil? They have signed every treaty on stateless people possible. I even remember something on the news where the Brazilian government paid to transfer some Palestinian families to Brazil. I think the Brazilian government should let people in, especially stateless people, but not pay for them because that&#039;s not fair to everyone else. 

There was a stateless African who appeared in the news recently because the government is going to issue him an ID card because they signed every treaty on stateless peopple. After some years, or if he has children here, he can apply for Brazilian citizenship.

The beaurocracy in Brazil is a real pain, and very time-consuming. Nonetheless, this should not discourage anyone. Give Brazil a try. I was born in the US, but I like Brazil very much. I am married and have a young child in Brazil.

After I get Brazilian citizenship, I can go live in Portugal (due to an agreement with Brazil), and get Portuguese (EU) citizenship if I want to.</description>

		<description>jus sanguinis is the law of the Philipines and since you are Philipines you will have no problem getting a citizenship for your daughter and she can keep her other passports in my understanding. I am not an expert but this is the way I read the laws.</description>

		<description>Hi Mark,
I&#039;m writing cuz there are few things I really would like to clarify. I am a Filipino citizen got married to a German national and right after our marriage, we moved to China, then after a year to the USA, we got a child who was born in the USA so she is in fact a US citizen and at the same time German since her father is. We acquired those 2 passports for her. Now we are thinking of getting a divorce because we are both not happy with our set up anymore. I&#039;m back in the Phils. now with my daughter. Can I still get a Filipino passport for her even though she already has two? I still keep my citizenship as a Filipino and not planning to go back to Europe unless necessary, our divorce paper is still on the way but should I allow him to take our daughter to his country even though we have not come up of an agreement regarding child custody? I know he is the father of my child and I do not want to deprive him from seeing her nor my child to her dad but at the same time I am scared what if he is not going to return my child back. Not sure if my problem is relevant to most of the posts here but been searching online for answers to no avail. Hope you or anyone can help.</description>

		<description>You are right, India rocks so I would just get maybe a resident card for the EU but keep my Indian citizenship. I mean India really is the future of the whole world if you look at the demographics.</description>

		<description>Hi Mark,

Thanks for your reply. I am from India. and since it is an upcoming economy, I am not sure if it would be great to lose my Indian citizenship.</description>

		<description>Italian citizenship is a great citizenship as it is an EU passport. You can live anywhere in the EU and work. The crisis will someday pass but until then, I think Italy is a wonderful country. Maybe you are from Ukraine? Where is your other passport?</description>
