You can reonounce Australian citizenship while in Australia. You will get what's called an ex-citizen visa, which you can live, work and study on in Australia indefnitely. You will lose it as soon as you go overseas. But then you can get a resident return visa which is permanent residency.
1:08 Will I lose my US citizenship if I get PR in Canada? 2:35 If you renounce your US citizenship can you get it back? 3:43 Now when you are a citizen of other countries can you ever come back to the US as a citizen of those countries? If so how much time can you spend there? 6:13 Do you have to be outside of the US to renounce your US citizenship? 6:44 Can you renounce your only citizenship? 8:05 If I give up my US citizenship am I going to give up my Social Security income? 9:09 Will a person's criminal record be a hindrance to renouncing US citizenship? 11:26 I live overseas. Can I switch my residence permit from a US citizen to a new citizenship?
I wonder if you renounce how does it effect military retirement/disability? If you are a merchant marine could you become a citizen of the country the ship's flag?
@@Laughter_in_da_rain'Any idea whether I'd keep getting disability from Social Security (not the disability that's from the state's EDD) or would I just keep my retirement benefits from Social Security, exclusively? Thanks!
I can't find this answer anywhere... Can 1 spouse give up us citizenship and the other one keep theirs? How would that look like? Taxes, etc I really want to but not sure my husband wants too as well. Time will tell but I'd love to know the options.
The banks don't care as long as they get paid. My uncle died in 2017. I kept paying the mortgage out of my checking account for two years, because the interest rate on his owner occupied fourplex in California was crazy low. I did not inform the bank because I didn't want it to call the loan.
Andrew. I have waited a year and one half to renounce my U S citizenship in Vancouver. I finally got my appointment a couple of months ago for November 19th.Everything seemed to have slowed right down due to COVID.
I saw a couple videos that referred to some work by Anna Von Reitz where it seems you can give up citizenship without leaving the USA. Are you familiar with this method?
I have a rather unique question i'm not sure if you have encountered . I'm currently not an entrepreneur yet,I am a a natural born US citizen,I am also former United States Military(ARMY to be exact) The main reason I am entertaining the concept of leaving the united states is that I want to start a business (automotive body kits) eventually and I want to know before I take this leap what's involved and I also want to thank you for the informative videos you have done which i'm in the process of watching. My question to you is while I was in the US Army i was injured and while it was a service connected injury which i have been getting a currently small amount of money for in compensation. If I renounce my citizenship if and how would that compensation be effected,will I be able to use VA hospitals that might be in a country I decide to go in like say Germany and seek any medical care should I need it? Btw the countries I am considering in future moving to and setting up said business are Georgia Armenia Croatia Yugolsavia Ireland(I have Irish on both sides of my family,to the best of my knowledge) Serbia Montengero Bulgaria Romania Germany Czech Republic Belarus The premise of this is to set up my business in future in the best possible situation.Any feedback would be appreciative because this is an action i'm taking my time to think as thoroughly as possible because I have certain feelings which are in conflict with both my political ideology and my service in the army
I have a question, please. I have permanent residency in Mexico with a small business with property in Mexico. Is there a statute of limitation on a civil court issue related to said property following a high conflict divorce proceeding involving ex husband that was later intervened with a bank seeking relief following my ex husband’s bankruptcy wherein I would be denied renouncing US citizenship? Or after 7 years would I be able to renounce without any consequences following my ex husbands banking chicanery. Unjust, unfair, as that may be, I am concerned that his actions would cause me consequences for repayment even though I have been living, working, and paying my taxes in both the US and Mexico since the divorce in 2011 and the subsequent pursuit of me since 2017. Is there a statute of limitations that would apply here?
How would another country know to FBI background check you for citizenship if you are stateless in Singapore and want to get citizenship in Malaysia? Unless your paperwork says you are born U.S etc. If you didn't mention you were a former U.S citizen, how would they know?.. If I was a citizen of no country and renounced life entirely to start fresh stateless in a foreign country I reside in like China. Couldn't you say you were born there without paperwork and never had citizenship? If there's no data of your arrival from the U.S or something. I don't think they would FBI U.S background check for citizenship if you are stateless and born in another country.. Open for comments. It's an interesting subject. There's millions of stateless people and kids in Asia, but they're seemingly doing well with gaining citizenship when they apply. If you're born in China rurally and not registered to the government. They can't just kick you out of China or deport you to the U.S or somewhere. They'd have to either give them Chinese citizenship or let them live in China as a stateless people.
“If you renounced, you don’t have much of a shot in politics....this is what keeps me up at night”
And this is why we adore you, Andrew
That realy made me chuckle.
After renouncing my citizenship, can I get a refund of hundreds of thousands of tax dollars I’ve paid over the years? 😂
you haven't paid the government anything, it was taken from you

@@jthemagicrobot3960 The military retirement/disability you can kiss bye bye. The only thing you can get is whatever you've paid into social security.
@@Laughter_in_da_rain just curious. Now what about the maritime bit?
@@Laughter_in_da_rain'Any idea whether I'd keep getting disability from Social Security (not the disability that's from the state's EDD) or would I just keep my retirement benefits from Social Security, exclusively? Thanks!
What about outstanding student loans (stafford, etc) that somehow are backed or related by the federal ... can the say no when you go to renounce?
This is my question also
Thanks!
How is a Roth IRA or Roth 401k handled for exit tax calculation?
I can't find this answer anywhere... Can 1 spouse give up us citizenship and the other one keep theirs? How would that look like? Taxes, etc

What happens to rental properties and properties with mortgages in the US if you renounce?
As long as you're able to get a visa to reenter the US whenever you need to, there shouldn't be a problem.
The banks don't care as long as they get paid. My uncle died in 2017. I kept paying the mortgage out of my checking account for two years, because the interest rate on his owner occupied fourplex in California was crazy low. I did not inform the bank because I didn't want it to call the loan.

Why would anyone want to ever come back? (besides just to visit)
So you renounce your citizenship outside of the USA , how do they collect that onerous tax for renunciation ?
I saw a couple videos that referred to some work by Anna Von Reitz where it seems you can give up citizenship without leaving the USA. Are you familiar with this method?

If I renounce but my wife keeps her status, does that open a door to come back?
