You must formally renounce your citizenship in person at a consular office in a foreign country by signing an oath of renunciation. You must prove your legal status to reside in a foreign country or show how you intend to apply for a non-immigrant visa to the US.

Are you planning on giving up your US Citizenship?  If you want to get german citizenship you really should think seriously about this.  As is the case with most countries, naturalization is possible, but costly.  Germany's population (taken anglo) is in decline and the (gov't and citizenry) are quite miffed about the 'new immigrants.'  Be mindful of their attitude here and they are VERY ethnocentric in their requirements (language requirement, etc)\n\nPlease contact the Consolate in your area   http://www.germany.info/relaunch/info/consular_services/citizenship.html  \n\nbest.\n\nhttp://www.germany.info/relaunch/info/missions/consulates.html

Did you think about this before you asked the question?\n\nIf you were born in the country, you have the citizenship of that country UNLESS you gave it up.  If you surrendered your citizenship, you can't become a citizen again.

You must pass the citizenship exam\nGot to a community college and ask for thier citizenship program which is usually free\ngo to www.ask.com and ask "citizenship?" and you will get to some websites about the test you must pass

First you need to become a permanent resident. This can be done through marriage, work , family etc, but requires time. I'm a permanent resident myself, and it took me 6 years in the US before I became that. I married a US citizen, and if we had stayed married, I would have been done in a coupe of years. Now I'm eligible to apply for citizenship, and the whole process is described in this document from the US Immigration:\nhttp://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=91d596981298d010VgnVCM10000048f3d6a1RCRD&vgnextchannel=b6f4194d3e88d010VgnVCM10000048f3d6a1___\nI hope this information has been some help.\nGood luck with your case!

Gee... lets see, renounce your US citizenship, attempt to get an Australian citizenship, apply for boot camp with the Australian Army. Maybe if you get through all of these, then you will be accepted into their Army. \n\nBut, why?

great answer above!!  The website link also linked to the Social Security and I requested an updated form.\n\nIf the answer above didn´t exactly do it for you, it is worth asking what you are willing to pay for a new ID.  Whoa, tiger not one for sale, one to build on.\n\nIt may be that you would just simply like a fresh start, a sort of personal annesty.\n\nThis is available but it will cost you in a different way than money.  \n\nIf you are in the US, and been there awhile, consider a change.  The US has all these things that ¨make up¨ your identity that most other countries just don´t have.\n\nFor someone who might appreciate that, life outside George Bushville can be very refreshing.  Now if you are going to complain about missing all the bennies like Disneyland and 31 Flavors, ya, this won´t work for you.\n\nThe fact remains that many countries are very nice alternatives to the ratrace, I mean, the homeland.\n\nBrazil, Mexico, Costa Rica, and any number of island nations where English is the first language, are easily accessible to you!!\n\nGood Luck.

To become a naturalized citizen of the United States of America, the following oath is required.\n\nNaturalization Oath of Allegiance\nto the United States of America\n\nOath:\n\n"I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state or sovereignty, of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the armed forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God."

I would highly recommend that you go visit india for an extended time and make sure that is what you want to do before you set things in motion on a more permanent basis.\n\nI just want to clarify that an American does NOT automatically lose their american citizen if they become a citizen of another country.  The only way this happens is if you go to embassy and sign away your rights by consciously choosing to renounce your american citizenship.\n\nDual citizenship is allowed, but not encouraged.\nThe exception to this is when a person from ANOTHER country becomes a citizen of the U.S.  As part of the oath, there is a phrase renouncing previous citizenship.  However, this is no longer enforced, for a variety of reasons, even though it is still on the books.\n\nI lost all my links, but I will post the link to this information as soon as I locate it.\n\nP.S. ... while it is legal to have dual citizenship, it can create some problems and hassles, too, post 9/11 ... just be prepared.
