TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
That FAQ does have some points that many people might not consider, such as
checking citizenship laws of your ancestors' homelands before visiting to
see whether you would be considered a citizen of that country.
For the official US line on dual citizenship, I'd suggest that folks see the
US State Department's info. Short version: the government does recognize,
but does not encourage, dual citizenship. there are ways you can lose your
US citizenship, but even becoming naturalized in another country doesn't do
it automatically.
"The Department has a uniform administrative standard of evidence based on
the premise that U.S. citizens intend to retain United States citizenship
when they obtain naturalization in a foreign state, subscribe to routine
declarations of allegiance to a foreign state, or accept non-policy level
employment with a foreign government."
Talk to a lawyer, etc., etc. Sorry if this is all said and done, but I'm on
digest and the archives don't seem to have recent messages yet...
