Will take the Spanish Citizenship? Learn how to sign up for the CCSE and how to prepare for the test
February 20, 2017Which is CCSE (Constitutional knowledge and Sociocultural from Spain) is a test or examination by the Cervantes Institute which assesses the knowledge of the social reality constitution and cultural Spanish.
But then you ask, but for what it's for me? All people who want to have Spanish citizenship (per household, for family regrouping, to be married to Spanish, for asylum and many other things) They need to do this test, the law was instituted in 2015, only who has Spanish ancestors did not need to do this test.
In our case, Pri my wife has not Spanish citizenship and I have, she is asking her to be married to me, and one of the necessary documents is the certificate that you made and passed that test. Coming back to the CCSE, this test is to prove that you have culture knowledge, politics, geography and economy of Spain, they can ask many things like who is the prime minister, who is king, which the colors of the Spanish flag which is a certain city in Spain, among others, but on the site which you have to increve handout for you to prepare, and all possible questions.
How to apply for the CCSE
Entries are made by the site Cervantes Institute, first you register on the site, makes the registration and then you pay a fee of (value of 2016, 84 euros), these tests are held monthly, then see when is the best time and place for you to sign up, they are valid for 4 years. As there is much demand can be that the inscriptions finish fast. How to prepare for the test of CCSE
As I commented before, no Institute's website there is also a material complete for you to prepare for the test, there will have a handout with approximately 100 sheets, previous evidence, likely questions that will fall on the exam and everything you need to prepare for the test.
It sounds like a lot, but if you read the handout a 2 times and answer all questions handout you will have great chances to pass the exam, Pri did it and went. The race will 25 questions, all with multiple choice answers and you have to hit at least 15 to pass, that is 60% of the test. The result leaves the Cervantes Institute's website after about 20 days after the exam, If you do not pass may request review of the evidence and if the answer is negative, You have a chance to retake the test only once more without paying.
On the day of the trial
On race day is required to take the inscription of proof and photo ID that you signed up for the race, and when left on NO (original), passport (original) registration of printed proof, out pen, pencil and eraser, there they also give, but I think good always prevent. Stay tuned to your information are correct, they will come to your certificate, come with 30 minutes before, proof has only 45 duration minutes.
Good luck.
