As the article explains, that rule is from before the advent of airplanes, and has since been amended. You're not the owner of any plane that happens to fly over your house!Rudi wrote:Cool....the plot I own is larger than I expected...

Granted - this concerning United States Nationality Law.Based on the U.S. Department of State regulation on dual citizenship (7 FAM 1162), the Supreme Court of the United States has stated that dual citizenship is a "status long recognized in the law" and that "a person may have and exercise rights of nationality in two countries and be subject to the responsibilities of both. The mere fact he asserts the rights of one citizenship does not without more mean that he renounces the other", (Kawakita v. U.S., 343 U.S. 717) (1952). In Schneider v. Rusk 377 U.S. 163 (1964), the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that a naturalized U.S. citizen has the right to return to his native country and to resume his former citizenship, and also to remain a U.S. citizen even if he never returns to the United States.
with a followup statement of:A person who is considered a citizen by more than one nation has dual citizenship. It is possible for a United States citizen to have dual citizenship; this can be achieved in various ways, such as by birth in the United States to a parent, or in certain circumstances even grandparent, who is a citizen of a foreign country, by birth in another country to a parent(s) who is/are a United States citizen/s, or by having parents who are citizens of different countries. Anyone who becomes a naturalized U.S. citizen is required to renounce any prior "allegiance" to other countries during the naturalization ceremony; however, this renunciation of allegiance is generally not considered renunciation of citizenship to those countries.
There are concerns with certain security classifications - but that becomes a decision of the person on whether to keep dual citizenship.A U.S. citizen may lose his dual citizenship by obtaining naturalization in a foreign state, taking an oath or making an affirmation or other formal declaration of allegiance to a foreign state or political subdivision thereof, or serving in the armed forces of a foreign state, but only if it was performed with the intention of renouncing U.S. citizenship.

Funny you should mention it:-Rudi wrote:... how do sky babies get classified???
England doesn't give citizenship to children born to non permanent residents. We know this because our daughter was born in England when we were living there on a temporary working visa. She has no rights to any English rights though that doesn't stop the Pommy jokes.ChrisGreaves wrote:Funny you should mention it:-Rudi wrote:... how do sky babies get classified???

"Officials recommend Ottawa removing citizenship rights to babies born to non-citizens and non-residents even though costs outweigh benefits."
Agreed, I'd think it would be a bit punny if we stayed next to each other.GeoffW wrote:Rudi- you are very fortunate that we're not neighbours.
