Recent Citizenship Revocation case

Ok, that's what I thought. But it is interesting that in 1940-60s there was a law for citizens requiring to maintain their permanent residence for at least 5 years, according to this case (though frankly I just looked through it, did not read attentively). As for paying taxes, it is understandable. But I know that the US has "double-taxation" agreements with a number of countries. This means if taxes are paid in one country, under the Agreement, the same income is not subject to taxation in the other country - to avoid double payment.

Yes, there are tax treaties and other exemptions available to eliminate most or all of the US taxation on non-US income when you live outside the US. However, US citizens living abroad are still supposed to file returns with the IRS to report their worldwide income, and the returns should show the relevant adjustments to reduce or eliminate the US taxation.
 
Another OLD OFF TOPIC Case

http://www.justice.gov/eoir/vll/intdec/vol10/1410.pdf

Matter of Azmita, 10 I&N Dec. 774 (Reg'l Comm'r 1964), Denial Affirmed on Certification

AOS Denied--Concealed Immigrant Intent Upon Entry as Tourist.

Ever since adjustment of status was created as an option folks have been trying to cheat the system.

The government has a half century of cynicism and pent up frustration on this issue.
 
USCIS should simply make B-2 status holders ineligible to file an I-485. I personally support it and in my opinion, will make life simple for most. Even genuine visitors seeking B-2 visas will benefit.

Here is a polar opposite case to above: http://www.justice.gov/eoir/vll/intdec/vol09/1136.pdf

Matter of C-H-, 9 I&N Dec. 265 (Asst. Comm'r 1961) DD Affirmed; SIO* Exclusion Reversed

AOS is NOT Precluded by just any old minor Excludability finding-Favorable Exercise of Discretion OK

*SIO = Special Inquiry Officer [Most later became Immigration Judges]
