Will i lose my U.S. Citizenship if i live outside the U.S. for more than five consecutive years?

Question

Where can i fine this ruling in the Emigration regulation?

Answer 1

No, you won't.

Here is where you will find information on how to lose US citizenship. It includes dual citizenship and renunciation, and how you can basicially only lose it if you want to:

Here is a nice story to demonstrate how true this is: When I was working in Paris in about 1987, a Frenchman showed up at my service window to apply for a US visa. I saw on his application that he had been born in New York more than 40 years before. After a couple of questions, I understood that he had no idea that he might still be entitled to citizenship: he had left the US when he was three years old and never gone back. I sent him across the courtyard to our American Citizen Services office, where he got a new, valid US passport and made his business trip as scheduled, as a US citizen.

Answer 2

i was in france in 1987 and i never met you but i met chris english in charge of the consular section of the paris embassy then,
i ended up with an english passport to the usa
but you must be some idiot to ask such a question!
go back to school
look at our country it takes in all these people from abroad , who supposedly get acquainted to our values in 5 years at to whom we give citizenship
most of them go back to their homeland right after that
we sell our citizenship worldwide

Answer 3
