I am Kenyan by birth, I automatically lost my Dutch nationality due to the fact i had dual citizenship and I have lived outside the Netherlands for over 10 years without applying for a dutch passport ( also due to the fact i didnt know that i had the nationality in the first place). It took a while to get confirmation from IND that indeed i once had dutch nationality but lost it in 2015.I was guided by the IND earlier this year to do a proportionality test via the option procedure. I submitted my documents and I am waiting for the results. It's been six weeks since submitting my documents and the anxiety is killing me.
It is indicated that the maximum waiting time is 13 weeks or it can be extended with notice for another 13 weeks.
I wanted to inquire from this forum whether there is anyone else who has gone through this process.?
How long did it take to receive the response? What was their circumstances for them to apply via the option procedure and did they get a positive response?
