AG to streamline citizenship process for partners of gay Israelis
Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit informs the High Court that he will reduce the naturalization requirements for the partners of gay Israelis to match that of straight spouses.
The straight partners of Israelis undergo a four-year process to gain citizenship, while gay people currently have a seven-year path to naturalization.
According to Walla, the AG intends to make it a four-year process for both gay and straight people.
