It may be time. Who has gone through the process of upping your residency to citizenship? What are the main hurdles you must overcome; lawyer needed, fluency, etc.. ? Best advice from those who know, please.

From a naturalized citizen:

1. paperwork from immigration - same place as residency, different office
2. proof of income
3. records of living in Nicaragua
4. take a three page test about the country, mostly essay, and in Spanish

The government also wanted a paper saying the applicant renounced their prior citizenship. Kept in Nica file only. Lawyer drew up the paper, a couple of papagraphs. Paper not sent to prior country.

Fairly easy, easier than residency. This was several years ago, things change without notice, but you already know that.
