| 1. I have no legal advice, but are we talking |
|
WWII or something more recent?
Do you have/have you ever declared dual citizenship?

I never imagined wanting to leave the US.
My mother is now deceased, if that matters.

| 3. You can go there if you wish. There is no restriction on going to Germany |
|
I would find it very interesting to see where my mother grew up if that were my situation. Got any pics of her when she was still there?

| 4. Call the German Embassy in Washington to see what your |
|
legal rights and status are. If your mother did not naturalize and was a German citizen when she died, you might have a quasi-right of residency in Germany. Which may not be a bad move considering how things are going here with the exception of the 12% unemployment there.

Under what terms she , if she did it at all, gave up her German citizenship. Ask at the nearest consulate and/or the Germany Embassy. :hi:
