I do as does my daughter. Here is the thing. Your boyfriend can not get Polish citizenship confirmed but if he lived in Poland he can apply for a Polish green card which will lead to citizenship. He can get this based on the Polish constitution. A Spanish residence card is possible as long as he works in Spain legally for a number of years.

Both his parents are deceased so we can't get them Polish citizenship first before he tries as you mentioned above and there are no further papers available. We are living in Spain so want to get him an EU passport to make it easier to finally get Spanish residency as a retired non working person. Would he have any chance if he applied ? And would he have to give up his US passport - someone once told me that the Polish can only hold one passport - is it true ? Thank - you are a great information base. Dear Mark

All you might be able to get is a visa. That could lead to citizenship over time. You have to go through a long process with the Canadian embassy. All you might be able to get is a visa.

In the UK and those countries you mentioned I think yes. It is about the country you marry in not the country you travel to. Once you are married I think you are married all over the world. Once married he can get a visa and then a passort. You have to just make sure that first cousins can marry. In the UK and those countries you mentioned I think yes.

I am Spanish by ancestry and already have my EU passport but he is not EU. He wants to work in Europe so we have been talking about getting married in Denmark soon and then live in Scotland, London or Germany. Are there any problems we may encounter? What do we have to be prepared for? How long does it take for him to get residence there? Thanks for the help. Sara Hi Mark,

Attoney will do nothing greater than explain the law which is what the embassy will do. You do not need an attorney, just contact the Polish embassy.

The USA speaks English and I can travel anywhere and live anywhere. If I had a European passport, I can live in Europe (I do have one). But if I want to be somewhere warm and sunny, Norway is not either is Switzerland I would have to park in some rocky foreign land of the Mediterranean. While as an American I am living on an Island off the coast of Florida with white sandy beaches and English. The debt problems will be corrected if the libs do not keep voting for representitives who inflate the debt to no end. USA is the land of dreams still if you can use your imagination and freedom. Europe has greater social benefits but these are overatedin terms of living a high quality of live. I would still rather have an US passport than any other.
