Re: British citizen born in Ireland moving US-born kids back to the UK

No, that only applies to the OP's grandchildren. He was born in Ireland, so his children are already Irish citizens by descent.

Re: British citizen born in Ireland moving US-born kids back to the UK

The OP states that he is a British citizen, but you're right that birth in Ireland to British parents wouldn't imply this in all cases.

Re: Applying for Dual Citizenship [HELP]

I'm confused now. Was your father born in the UK? If so then you are already a British citizen by descent; otherwise you are not, and have no options for applying for citizenship by registration.

Re: French tax implications of savings in UK account

Re: French tax implications of savings in UK account

It's the interest (i.e. the income) that's taxed, not the amount of money in the account. This principle applies in France as it does in the UK.

The interest will be taxable only in France once...
