Bonita Springs, FL Immigration Law Firms & Lawyers

We don't revoke citizenship for post-naturalization activities.  Revoking citizenship currently requires proving that there was some misrepresentation in the immigration or naturalization process prior to the benefit being confered.   To allow actions after you become a citizen to put your status at risk creates a class of citizens that do not have the same rights as those who are born here.  There are many policy implications to changing our current citizenship laws.  Stripping someone of their citizenship gains the state no particular advantage since we want to prosecute and punish offenders in our own jurisdiction anyway.

There's nothing to do.  No one will prevent you from leaving.  However, if you overstayed 1 year or more, when you leave, you will trigger the 10-year bar, which means you cannot return to the U.S. for 10 years.  Also, your visa(s) will automatically be revoked.

Obtaining a new nationality should not have any effect upon the validity of your green card. Neither should it hamper your later application for US citizenship. The US does respect the concept of dual citizenship, especially with an ally like the UK.Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.
