  • Citizenship Questions

    Hi All,
    I have Greencard now which is due for renewal next month, but I am wondering instead can we (me and my wife and son is born in US)
    apply for US citizenship, which would help if we ever want to come back again as we are thinking to go to India for good.
    So my questions are as below assuming we get/have US citizenship,
    1. Can i still work in India or do I need visa?
    2 Can we buy land and house (i know we can not buy agricultural land & vote), cant think any other disadvantage.
    3. Would there be significantly higher tuition fees for my son for his education if none of us are Indian citizens.
    He is currently six years old.
    4. If we decide to get Indian citizenship back by returning the US citizenship for me & my wife, is it allowed?
    can we also get Indian citizenship for my Son on the basis of parents are born in India and now they have Indian citizenship.
    5. While me being US citizenship and working in India, how does the income tax work? Do i pay more tax in India and take credit
    for that as I assuming I have to file tax in US too.
    6. If we leave US for long time while on green card ( i know max is 1 year), is there a procedure or exception to
    come back to US even after several years staying outside US and renewing green card again. If there is something like that then
    we don't need to apply for US citizenship.

    thanks

    Hi
    In addition to the questions above. In future if I would like to give up my US citizenship and get back Indian citizenship, what is the process.
    thanks

      If you are planning to go back to India, it is always best to apply for US citizenship as that's the best option as you know how valuable a Greencard is for Indians these days and you will always have an option to come back. With OCI, you almost get full Indian citizenship rights (apart from some like you mentioned above). Go ahead and apply for citizenship and then get OCI and move back to India with ease!

      On giving up US Citizenship, read this - https://travel.state.gov/content/tra...ty-Abroad.html
