General Discussion

From birth, our daughters have been citizens of Germany and the USA. All four of our grandchildren are dual citizens as well. My brother's sons were dual citizens of the USA and Japan, but neither of them have done anything, such as passport renewal, to support their Japanese citizenship in recent decades, so I don't even know if Japan would recognize them as citizens any longer. My daughters actively renew their passports from both countries, and never let them expire before a renewal has been applied for. Both countries are aware of their status, and neither Germany nor the USA has indicated that they have a problem with his.
