Dear Dr. Guzman-
I am a U.S. born with a U.S. passport, have my permanent D.R. residency and am considering dual U.S. and Dominican citizenship.
I was recently told that there are certain U.S. rights that are lost when one has dual citizenship. He also mentioned that U.S. Social Security may be affected.
I would appreciate having your advice on this matter.
(BTW, the same person told me that the reverse--a Dominican born person with dual U.S./D.R. citizenship does have advantages in dual citizenship.)
Mil gracias.
