What happens with my children in Turkey's Citizenship By Investment program after they turn 18?

As i understand current rule, If I acquire Turkish Citizenship with my two minor children's (Age 16, Age 14) by investing in Real Estate or Direct Bank Deposit/Fund investment with my spouse, I will receive citizenship for all of us? But What happen to my minor children's citizenship after they become of adult age? (After age of 18) Will they loose Citizenship and i have to invest again on their behalf individually to get their citizenship again?

    When you receive Turkish citizenship as a main applicant, all your children under 18 receive citizenship too. There is nothing more you need to do after they turn 18, they will all keep their citizenship status.

    No, even after becoming adults, the children will keep their Turkish citizenship. Turkish CBI program permits the investor to tag along his/her spouse and minor children to benefit from the system. The main issue is that they need to be minors at the time of the granting of citizenship, if the children of the investor are already adults, they will need to arrange for their own independent applications.
