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.

As in, the requirements may become even stricter, and she'd get denied on the basis of not meeting the new requirements? That's so messed up...

They have been doing this several times. So I won’t be surprised if they do it again..

I was doing a bit of reading and saw a few proposals from recent years to make it easier to get citizenship for people born here, or to count education as employment - But the proposals keep getting shot down. I'm hoping that means progress is on the horizon, but it sounds like it's still considered a radical idea...

It is a bit easier for people who are born here. But only if they apply before they turn 22 :)

Unfortunately that ship has sailed. The way it stands at the moment, it sounds like our only option is the long way.
