Change of nationality (Citizenship & passport) while on H1B

[zephyr0225]

Hi all,

This is a hypothetical case which is very likely to happen in the future.
I am a Chinese citizen for now and I am currently on OPT. I think my H1B will get approved soon and
then I will carry H1B visa on my Chinese passport. But my family plans to acquire Dominican republic citizenship for business purpose and then I will probably be Dominican republic citizen and renounce my chinese citizenship (hence effectively invalidating my chinese passport)
Would the transfer of citizenship cause any problem to my H1B status or future application for greencard?

Simple answer - NO, it will not affect your H1b OR your green card application in future.

For the record, you are not transferring your citizenship, you are acquiring another

Would the transfer of citizenship cause any problem
