Hejsa,

I was hoping to get some advice and information on the process of acquiring citizenship for a Dane born to foreign parents. My wife was born in Denmark to foreign parents (UK, hence she has British citizenship), grew up here, and is now studying here. She is finally looking at getting her citizenship, however it seems as though her only option is via naturalisation, which seems to indicate that as a student and not a worker, she does not qualify. Is this correct? Is her only option to wait until she graduates, find a job, work another 3.5 years, then apply?

I understand that none of you may be immigration lawyers or experts, however any information at all would be greatly appreciated.

With my experience as someone with a US wife and myself being a danish citizen, it sounds about right when you say

Is her only option to wait until she graduates, find a job, work another 3.5 years, then apply?

Danish immigration is horrendously strict and frankly stupendously complicated.

What I would suggest is to check out the 'nyidamark' website (the Danish immigration website). You can also try and call them; It's a bit of a gamble whether you get a nice or not person to help you, but they would be able to tell you more specifically.

I grew up and went to school with a girl from Thailand when I was a kid. I was talking to my mom a few weeks ago about old stuff and ended up googling her, just to find out that she has only JUST gotten naturalized. I haven't talked to her, but the hoops have to have been stupid.

Edit; I'm 35 btw
