I don't know if this subject has already been covered, if so, someone could please point me in the right direction.


Has anyone ever used their PhD  as the basis for an application for Belgian citizenship through the special interest naturalization process?


If so, did you get a favorable response?


How much time did it take?


What are the possibilities of getting a favorable decision, please?

There is no deadline in this case.
