Hello,

 

My wife is a British Citizen.  If she becomes an American Citizen, will she lose her British Citizenship?  Thank you.

Nope, the oath you take and the statements you sign are just words they have no action as far as the UK is concerned - they don’t care what you promise the US you still belong to the UK unless you formally apply to the UK to renounce your citizenship.

 

I have my citizenship test next month, my daughter is a duel national as is my husband.

I'm so glad you asked this! I was under the impression that we had to renounce as well! So happy that's not the case

Begs the question why Her Majesty would care what you said to the US Government, assuming not treasonous.

Dual citizenship

Dual citizenship (also known as dual nationality) is allowed in the UK. This means you can be a British citizen and also a citizen of other countries.

You don’t need to apply for dual citizenship. You can apply for foreign citizenship and keep your British citizenship.

Even that is just a declaration before US authorities. It has no more effect on British status than renunciation of citizenship. As far as the Queen's concerned, he can still be Sir Anthony and keep his British passport.

True.  Although I will admit that when I took my oath, I *felt* like I was being treasonous in a way.

This article is not correct. It says that the Netherlands do not allow dual citizenship, while in fact they do, as long as the second citizenship is acquired as a result of marriage to a citizen of that country. I think it's always better to find this kind of information on official government websites, instead of random articles.

Mmm sweeping statement... aside from the nuances which need to be determined by the individual concerned... why is this junk? 

Because no one can rely on this information. Too many factors could make it right for one, wrong for the other.
