Someone I know told me that Ireland claims or allows Irish citizenship for the children and grandchildren of their citizens who deny previous citizenship and accept U.S. citizenship. Question, when naturalized you do have to deny or something to that effect your former citizenship, don’t you? Anyway because this friends parents are naturalized U.S. citizens from Ireland, both her and her siblings along with all of their children are either considered Irish citizens or eligible for a “dual” Irish citizenship. Question, Do dual citizens pay taxes to both of the nations they pay allegiance to?

assuming ireland is ok with offering citizenship to your friends, they would be able to hold dual citizenship... US and Ireland.

while living in the US, they would pay only US taxes.

if they moved to Ireland, they would pay Irish taxes ... AND ... US taxes.

the US is the only country in the world to require its citizens pay taxes no matter where they reside (while ignoring the illegals in the country sucking down resources... total bullsh*t)

to avoid having to pay the absurd taxes while living overseas, a US citizen would have to renounce their citizenship (more utter bullshit)
