I saw some posts about american wanting to move to Europe; so just before you guys make the move, double-triple check insurances/banks, because literally every time I (not american) do smth financially related in France, they ask me if I am american? If yes, they won’t even open accounts/ give me insurance etc… Sounds discriminatory but apperently because legal

I dont know if that expands to any other field

EDIT: lol i am now wondering what are people are downvoting for? You dont like that fact, so you downvote whoever told you that fact? Some reactions are hilarious

    This is one of those little catches anyone preaching to their relatives to emigrate don’t say about.

    I live in a third world country, and until Trump, nearly everyone wants a fucking green card thinking it’s gonna make them happy.

      If you have two nationalities, couldn’t you just be sneaky and never tell the authorities of the country you moved to? If you’re not planning on going back, for example, what would be the problem?

        Sounds like fraud. As long as no one finds out you’d probably get away with it, but you would be committing tax evasion according to US laws.

        If you really don’t want to go back you can get rid of your US citizenship and avoid the problem.

          I wonder if you could/would get extradited for not paying taxes to Uncle Sam. 🤔

          But yeah, just renouncing the citizenship seems to be the way forward if you’re not planning on coming back.
