Hi all I’m from st. Kitts & Nevis
People from St. kitts are kittitian
People from Nevis are Nevisians
Just to help everyone better connect with country its people and its culture
Hey buddy is there cheaper way to be a citizen from your country
@@abdalla1955 yeah, stay where you are
Exactly!
@@sallysmith9899 true 🤣🤣🤣

There is a “soft/hard” policy difference. I know because I felt it personally. For years I traveled with a Brazilian passport (great passport by the way, lots of visa free access) to Europe and Asia but constantly I was treated like a second class citizen at immigration and customs, being questioned constantly and some times taken to a special second round of questioning in a closed off room. This happened in China, Sweden, UAE and Thailand. Now that I became a US citizen I seethe difference is enormous. So yes, you can technically travel with a “b” class passport, I was never denied entry to schengen or other visa free countries I had access to with my Brazilian passport, But I was interrogated and given a hard time more often than not. I like having my Brazilian passport and I will keep it, but there is a difference to the treatment I get when presenting a US passport.
Good points! Although, now that they’re finally getting the international face they’ve earned, this may change.
Yup, this dude usually interviews white folks who might get away with weaker passports. Brown/ tan and black skin and you get questioned or your bags get checked another time quite often, especially in the EU. :D
Same with albanian passport,you still get treated as a country with a poor passport ,eventhough i can travel freely in euorpe and have many visa free countries but still when they see the albanian passport they treat you more harshly with more questions ect.If u have a different passport (a more powerful one or a passport of a powerful country) you will be treated really differently.I think having a saint kitts passport would be great in these cases.
I am not sure because I have not traveled, but I guess the same would happen to me with a Mexican passport!
Congratulations Heidi Chakos and Andrew Henderson on your new citizenship
Great content, keep up the good work
Appreciate it!
Glad to see my country being highlighted
Yes but, I dont want any and anyone thinking we are an easy country and you can just flock there. I personally don't want it to become like Barbados. I want to stay mostly caribbean and not overtake with foreigners and get call little England. Hell no!!!
Do you love st kits?
Great one !
My country of birth!🇰🇳🇰🇳
I've watched your first video and I'm happy to know there was no hiccups..🇰🇳🥀🇰🇳🥀
St Kitts is considered a blacklisted tax haven by Portugal, meaning that a Portugal tax resident can’t get tax waived on income sourced from St Kitt, though crypto gains are excluded from taxes in Portugal I heard.
Mr.Henderson slight correction, It's "Kittian" not "st.kittian". Ijs
Actually it’s Kittitian🇰🇳
@@coachro just so! Kittitian and Nevisians!
Fortunate for me my wife was born and raised in St Kitts and Nevis 😁
Maybe looking at the same once my crypto assets take off. I'm learning a 3rd language now! Great videos Andrew. Loved the video on your apartment in Bogota. I'm currently looking in Medellin.
@@vladimirkazakov3033 they will U.S. dollar is dying. In order to prevent WW3 they will introduce 2 or 3 world reserve currencies. It's just a matter of time. They are stealing wealth as we discuss this.
Give it time, this will change. Nothing happens immediately. I hope your stoking up on food and non perishables if you live in the U.S. UBI incoming....
That place is a expensive trap now?
People of St. Kitts are call Kittitian not St.Kittsian
I have my second passport in hand for Barbados by descent . I need to think 🤔 long and hard about what to do with my American passport. She is a very interesting person to listen to.
Are you living in the US? Do you plan on returning to the US? If no to both, you should consider renouncing your citizenship. ESP. If you are ok with never going back. Right now, you are liable for US taxes, subject to FATCA and US surveillance even in Barbados
I'm west indian as well. Born in Brooklyn. As brown and black people, we need to think long and hard about giving up US citizenship. Sometimes because we're not white, that citizenship can be the thing that helps us out. Unless one of those multiple passports is a first world country, I wouldn't give up US citizenship. I'm going to be going for Portugal 🇵🇹 residency first and possibly a tax free Caribbean country close to simultaneously. We have some company stuff happening for us in the Bahamas 🇧🇸. Will need to look into them. For now I'm OK paying the US taxes for the US privilege when I travel. I've been stopped by local police in other countries because I look like I didn't belong. I just had to say I was American and show id, and they apologized for stopping me and kept it moving. I can't even imagine how bad those experiences could have been had I not been American.
Most countries don't have embassies that are capable of helping in major or personal crises like the US has.
People from countries other than the US might not see the value yet, but when Canada, Australia, NZ, and the UK start taxing globally I'm sure the price of CBI will go up.
That's PROBABLY true; although it is POSSIBLE that a few other countries would then "step into the fray" and offer CBI (or at least offer a much faster naturalization process in exchange for money; a country like Paraguay, for example, could offer citizenship in exchange for $100,000 and 9 months of residency, and an easy-to-pass language test).
Good point.
@@dlukton except no one is looking for a Paraguay passport 😂
@@Ban00 If the government of Paraguay were to offer a passport for $100K, it would "sell like hotcakes".
Is this a repeat video? I seem to remember seeing one just like this earlier.
She spoke about her expatriation from the U.S in another vid.
Its a clip from a longer Interview he uploaded a few months ago.
this is the third time it got re-uploaded lol
But without renunciation, you're still up against that FATCA block even with the SK passport. Tough call.
I'm on the exact same page as this bright woman!
I’m from dominan Republic 🇩🇴bout St kitts🇰🇳is la mejor isla 🥰
My country of birth proud to be a kittitian
Me too and want it to stay Kittitian
Do you live st kits?
Where is the travel experience ?
Has either of you actually been to St. Kitts?
I'm surprised it took a YEAR. The St. Kitts and Nevis CBI program advertises a 3 to 4 month process. I'm starting to doubt whether I can really push through with this or not. 😞
@@dieterleschHold up, sorry, I'm kind of not getting it... 😅
And the process does indeed take 3-4 months unless there is an issue or request for additional documents. This then causes a pause to the processing while the client provides to the unit what is requested and the processing then resumes once the documents are received. Therefore the only way the process would take a year is if there was a delay on the applicant’s end. Citizens of St Kitts and Nevis are called Kittitians and Nevisians. 🙂
@@candisiefranklin3674 Ohhhhhhh. I see. Hmmm... I wonder what the govt would still want if one had already submitted everything required? 😥 Tbh, I'm really worried about the financial aspect of the due diligence. Like, I really don't wanna have to give them all my ORs and show them all the contracts I make with my tenants because that's private stuff 😢
Daniel Vidal Citizenship for any country is not a matter to be taken lightly. You are getting some of the same rights and privileges that born citizens get as a birth right except you are acquiring it by investing. I think showing business transactions and source of funds are very little to ask for in the grand scheme of things. Don’t you agree? 🤔
@@candisiefranklin3674 Hmmm... Fair enough. I've been thinking of ways to make it comfortable for my tenants to have our contracts submitted. I'm just worried that they might not be okay with it, yanno, with their name in it and all.
Tried checking out her website....half of it is in what appears to be latin, and some of the other pages don't even load. Oops.
Everytime he referred to us as St. Kittsian I cringed...Well at least they didnt refer to it as St. Christopher.
I'm curious what do you think of your country's passport by investment policy?
@@iTuber012 There is allot of forigeners coming in with outside money and take advantage of the exchange rate buying up property. I immigrated from there to America as a teenager in the 90s. When I go back from time to time its more and more unrecognizable. I think the policy is just there to put money in politicians pockets. The government is robbing its people blind
@@janus9824 so truth
I cringe too I had to correct him right quick
@@iTuber012 disagree
During 2020, 7400 foreigners have become Turkish citizens and have got their turkish passports and drivers licenses by investing 2 billion usd into turkish real estate market as Golden Investor, 250.000 usd each. Many of them are Yemeni, Iraqi, Iranian, Afghan, Algerian, French, Carribean citizens. We in the family always have been eating outside from restaurants, from street foods, from pizza, burger parlours, we only prepare coffee or tea at home as turkish citizens. You can do the same with high net worth individuals from northern europe or canadian, usa citizens; invest in Turkey and live at its best, use turkish servants all the time.
I thought Turkish people liked cooking at home, why do you eat out often?
@@aliasgharkhoyee8911 everyone’s different I guess
@@aliasgharkhoyee8911 that’s like saying Americans like to eat out even though there’s millions of Americans who eat out less than once a week. Everyone’s different
what about drivers license? would i get a saint kitts one for international or can i still use my US one?
get a drivers license where you live
Wow this is great! Shocked about the elementary school and all that stuff. I moved around a lot. Seems St. Kitts is much longer to get than St. Lucia as well.
Is this common for citizenship by investment to ask for school as a kid? I thought it was just criminal background checks and financial checks.
Did she renounce US? if so did she buy a St. Kitts visa with real-estate yo qualify?
Yes my country by birth 👍
We are called Kittitians and Nevisians
I wouldn't bother to educate them. If they cannot get it right, they shouldn't be aloud to live there. Don't want my country overpopulated.. The PM too greedy and all he thinks about is himself. Robbing the citizens.
@@sallysmith9899 majority of cbi citizens don't live in st kitts so mo need to worry..
Heidi - did you have to pay an exit tax when you renounced? how about a final tax return, what crypto did you disclose? what did you file?
Heidi is a dummy- If you have a net worth of 2m + then you have a to pay the exit tax- I am sure she did not disclose her crypto - because she does not own any - Her job is to sell you on her services
Hello Andrew
Many agents are offering funded CBI
where they fund your share investment in saint kitts till selling after five years in return of very low amount.
in essence, you are getting CBI for very less. for example, a family of four will get CBI for 120k USD
what do you think?
ess
Can I use my St Kitts passport for TSA Precheck in the United States if I am a dual citizen (USA-Kitts)
No.
Do you have to live in St.Kitts and Nevis?
No residency.
Do you have to denounce the US passport for the st Kitts.
No unless you want to. St. Kitts allow a dual
US allows dual too.
I love Heidi:)
Why do they say it takes 3months instead of 1yr you're saying here.
Because most other companies leave you alone to figure everything out on your own, which times time and is likely to create easy mistakes.
I know its not the normal content, but this is the 3rd vid for St kitts that popped up, but doesn't even give a briefest description of what life is like on st kitts. Does it really suck that bad that getting citizenship means you don't ever want to even describe it when you talk about citizenship there? Im in texas and if you ask me about texas citizenship I'll tell you what its like living here. lolz
You don’t get Kittitian citizenship to live there, you get it to avoid having to pay stupid amounts of tax to the us
I’ve been there. It’s warm, laid back, and pretty. The population is small so there is not a lot of excitement.
Love from Pakistan
Andrew, its Kittitians, not Kittsian.

A national of st. Kitts and nevis is called a Kittitian or nevisian not a st. Kittsian
He keeps bundling us with St. Lucia so he thought the terms for us was the same smh.
It's a real good thing you didnt ask her about Ripple XRP 😂🤣
Kittitian *
Not st.kittian it's Kittian thanx
Kittitian
I think she received the St. Kitts Passport and Citizenship because she have enough money to invest her money there where she has to hire at least 10 persons permanently. I am happy you are enjoying living in SKB my country. 🇰🇳🇰🇳. Hope my sons can get a job from you some day. Hahaha. Be bless and stay safe 🙏🙏
Shame that as a Kittitian you know nothing about the CBI program. An applicant can apply and obtain their passport either through ‘donation’ or through real estate investment. There is NO requirement where an individual has to provide employment for 10 persons permanently.
@@yellowzoo5079 I will call that a sell out because why you want a Citizenship for a Poor man country if you not going their with a load of cash to produce work for the poorer people. Be from a none American country and go there and buy a house because you has a load of money and don't invest to help other and see if you will get Citizenship without a family member file for you( Mother,Father, Sister, Brother or Husband) Sorry if my country becomes that corrupt.
@@sisterc6774St kitts makes billions every year from the program which goes into programs that help the people
Did he just say “St. Kittsian?” 🤦🏾♂️…It’s Kittitian.
Hello, we are the real estate company which handling the Saint Kitts and Saint Lucia immigration projects, the only partner for the St. Kitts infrastructure project and would like to have further cooperation with you😊.
