Trapick posted:Sounds like you'd be aiming for "express entry" as a skilled worker; take a look at https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...ed-workers.html and see how many points you can get. Cool, I'll read that. Also, if things work out for me in Canada and I get citizenship I'll probably renounce my US citizenship.

Boris Johnson was born in the US, never spent much time here, and it still took him years to lose his citizenship (and he was much more motivated than you since this was relevant to his livelihood). Well that's a bummer. Figured it was just $2,350 and some self-flagellation in front of a horny Border Patrol agent.

lavaca posted:The hard part isn't the act of saying "I renounce the United States and all its works and all its pomps", it's everything else you have to do before they'll let you get that far. You have to be a citizen of another country, be current on your US tax returns for five years, pay or prove you don't owe exit taxes, prove you're not avoiding prosecution, etc. Probably not worth it unless you're a rich rear end in a top hat who doesn't have any reason to visit the US ever again. idk, I'm pretty pissed off man
