Its clearly stated on the US website what you can lose your us citizenship for. If you are educated you would have the skills to look it up yourselves.
Cut out the swearing please, even if starred out we all know what you mean and there is no need for it. Thanks

Perhaps you could provide a link to the statement you made earlier in the thread that one could not have dual US/UK/AUS etc citizenship. Where is the link? It's no good making statements if you aren't going to provide a link to where it specifically states what you keep repeating.

I have no experience of US Dual Citizenship laws but I think this may be the bit that Weebie is referring to? Its ambiguous to say the least, but I'm reading it as you have to want to give up US Citizenship, perhaps that's wrong, or Weebie is reading it a different way?

However, a person who acquires a foreign citizenship by applying for it may lose U.S. citizenship. In order to lose U.S. citizenship, the law requires that the person must apply for the foreign citizenship voluntarily, by free choice, and with the intention to give up U.S. citizenship.
US State Department Services - Dual Nationality

I didn't really look hard but I didn't see anything specifically relating to voluntarily obtaining citizenship of three countries (as opposed to someone who would obtain citizenship due to birth/by descent) where it includes a US citizenship.

Exactly. You have to specifically want to renounce it, it doesn't automatically get taken away from you if you pick up another citizenship.

It's as daft as people saying you'll lose your UK citizenship if you become a US citizenship because the oath ceremony has you saying you renounce all other allegiance, which is great for the US because they'll only treat you as a US citizen, but most other countries don't pay any attention to it and you have to take specific steps to officially renounce a citizenship.

Basically, to put things diplomatically, Weebie is talking diarrhoeal of the mouth.

What is your problem? So now people shouldn't become citizens?


I thought you had yourself a nice little flounce a few weeks ago and said you weren't coming back?
