Such a procedure as obtaining citizenship in each country has its own specifics. To apply for citizenship in the Russian Federation, you need to know a few nuances about this event.
Instructions
Step 1
Method of acquisition by birth. Born on the territory of the Russian Federation into a family of citizens of the Russian Federation, you automatically receive the citizenship of this country, and, accordingly, the rights and obligations of a citizen of Russia.
Step 2
The method of acquisition as a result of admission to citizenship. The legislation defines two options for how citizenship can be made: a general procedure and a simplified one. In the first case, applications can be accepted from foreign citizens and stateless persons who have reached the age of eighteen and are fully capable.
With a simplified procedure for admission to citizenship, the list of categories of citizens who can apply with an application is slightly wider. It is also used when obtaining Russian citizenship on the basis of international treaties. For example, the Agreement (dated February 26, 1999) is valid between the Republic of Belarus, the Republic of Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic and the Russian Federation. Under this agreement, the period for considering issues of acquiring citizenship is 3 months.
Step 3
The method of acquiring as a result of restoration of citizenship. This method is applicable for persons who once lost this citizenship for any reason. For example, they abandoned him, having received the citizenship of another state or having lost identity documents and confirming his other rights as a citizen of the Russian Federation.
