I am a natural born citizen of the US..My wife is from the Philippines & became a US citizen. She is now in the Philippines & wanting to get a dual Citizenship while there..How long does it take to get the dual citizenship does she need to stay there until she gets it? Or can they mail it to her here in the US? Thanks

  Hi Terry – The amount of time it takes depends on where you apply. My wife applied in June of 2011 in Davao, and she was approved in March 2012, so it took nearly a year. Other places will vary. You cannot have it mailed to the States. I would recommend just applying in the USA, where it is actually much quicker. Apply at any Philippine Consulate or Embassy.
