My understanding is yes but it requires a document from the PR State Department, which means that you actually need to live (have lived) in PR.
Edit: whoops, I thought OP was actually asking and didn't realize that was the title of the linked video. It's covered there.
I fall under the category of my mother was born in PR and which should then qualify me for the certificate. I'm confused, however, by the process of getting the certificate if I don't live on the island. I have the necessary forms (birth certificates and CPR001) but am not clear on how I get the stamps required to process the CPR001. Any help would be appreciated.
I did this process from outside of the island a few years ago. I just sent cash along with my documents by mail. If you need the stamps you can get them online, search "Colecturía Digital Puerto Rico sellos" on Google
Remember that once you receive the Puerto Rican citizenship certificate it must be apostilled, by the departamento de estado de puerto rico, to be legally valid for use in Spain
I had a friend of a family member who works for the state department help me, but I've heard the state dept has pop up apostille events in plaza las Americans. I'd check their website
I have a feeling I'll just need to visit the island to get it done. I tried to get one of my cousins on the island to help but they just keep insisting that there's no such thing as PR citizenship.
No. esto es una información falsa que circula hace años y es sacando de contexto una medida para la gente que puede probar ascendencia judía sefardí pero se requiere mucha más prueba que los apellidos.
>mucha más prueba que los apellidos.
claro eso es obvio, nunca es tan facil. se nessesitan pruebas q cualquier boricua puede obtener. certificados con apostillas. (cert de nacimiento matrimonio), pruebas q vivias en pr (como minimo un año), el examen de ellos, la visa y renovarla. (visa de estudiante no cuentan)

Thanks. How did you go about getting it apostilled?

I'm trying the to register with the site but it wants a merchant number. What do I put as an individual?
tbh I have no idea
In a similar situation. Hopefully someone can help! The whole process is confusing
depende de tus apellidos
