> I'm not sure what the rules are on reconnecting with the US if you have formally renounced citizenship. However, I'm sure a birth cert from Yeehaw, TX or wherever will go some way.

It doesn't. Once you've renounced your US citizenship you're on exactly the same footing as any other foreigner in terms of visiting or living here.

And that's assuming you're smart enough not to admit to the government that you're renouncing your US citizenship for tax purposes. If you make that mistake, you've made yourself permanently inadmissible to the United States under INA 212(a)(10)(E).

Blimey, that's a bit harsh!

I wonder if Mr Adams and co, when throwing off the yoke of something, something, imperialism and that, and those jolly beastly Britons, would approve of INA 212(a)(10)(E)?

That is some legacy for those freedom fighters. cough terrorists (sorry - I'm a Brit, its only been 250 odd years!)

    Mr Adams recently wrote about the possibility of spending a year dead for tax purposes.
