Does US allow DUal Citizenship

[mogambo1]

Does US allow dual citizenship for example along with India.

By this I mean that once you get US Citzenship and go through US Citizenship oath etc which clearly very compelling for everything.

Can you still go for Dual Citizenship with for India. I believe that according to US would be criminal.

Please share your thoughts and formal law information if you have.

yes

mogambo1,

The dual citizenship offered by India is not 'true' dual citizenship. It is OCI (overseas citizen of Inida). And, yes, you can get OCI after becoming US citizen. There are lot of people on the forum who are US citizens and they have taken OCI. Again, OCI is not dual citizenship even though it is called so.

India, not the US, does not allow its citizens to hold any other citizenship.

what do you mean?

India, not the US, does not allow its citizens to hold any other citizenship.

What do you mean? You claim yourself to be triple citizen (even in your signature), but say that US does not allow dual citizenship. What do you mean by that?

Read my original post again. I have said that India does not allow dual citizenship. The US allows its citizens to hold other citizenships as long as they fulfill a few minor conditions.
