Hi MadridMan. You didn't get my post. Yes, the US allows ppl to have dual citizenship...but this is not what I was referring to. The SPANISH government is the one that puts this condition. In order to get THEIR passport they're requesting for Americans to drop their US one...of course this is when you're applying solely under the grandparent amendment that went into effect in -09-JAN-03. I did contact more than one consulate in the US and this was confirmed...I also recall reading on it online. If something has changed from the Spanish government, I'd love to get some info because I am also 1/4 Spanish.
