• not eligible

  POSITIVE DISCONFIRMATION / A163 sub-citizenship (GE-ASSERT-067/069): compatriot residing abroad ('Georgian-origin') status under the Law on Compatriots (in force 1 Mar 2012) is a distinct CIVIL status, NOT a citizenship pathway. The holder remains a foreigner enjoying the rights of aliens plus enumerated privileges; the status does NOT confer or restore Georgian citizenship and creates no descent/ancestry citizenship route. His belief is mistaken.

• conditional

  The principal citizenship-relevant benefit of compatriot status is a FEE CONCESSION, not eased eligibility (Art 11(1)(c) of the Compatriots Law): a compatriot may pay service fees on concessional terms for filing a citizenship application, as set by Government ordinance. The substantive naturalisation criteria of the Organic Law are UNCHANGED by the status - so she must still satisfy a genuine acquisition route (e.g. Art 12 ordinary naturalisation). Outcome conditional on meeting that underlying route; the status only discounts the fee.

• eligible

  Compatriot status itself (NOT citizenship) is available under Art 4(1)(b) of the Compatriots Law to a citizen of another country who has a Georgian origin and/or whose native language belongs to the Georgian-Caucasian language group; benefits include visa-free entry up to 30 days (Art 11(1)(b)) and a fee concession on citizenship applications (Art 11(1)(c)). He is eligible for the compatriot STATUS (a sub-citizenship status), which is the proper scope of this route - it does not make him a Georgian citizen.
