Thank you for answering my Qs about citizenship. Very interesting. Multiple passports....easier to travel when your parents travel for a living ;)

Dear Citizenship Anon,

It is very rare for an Anon to come back and thank me, so kudos to you, really, 😘😘😘. I simply examined the matter in theory, as I have no proof of this whatsoever (and how could I, since children's data are protected all over the world, for all the excellent reasons one could think of).

If such a child exists (remember I am answering you seriously, here), they would have to travel with their parents, nannie or other relatives (extra documents, such as a Travel Consent signed by the parents, may be needed in the latter cases), even if in the US and in Ireland all children must have their own travel documents. FYI, in the UK, many children are included on either one or both their parents' passports, but they can also have their own document (to avoid applying for an US visa, if included on a parent's passport, for example) - an US passport comes in handy, here, for obvious reasons.

So not sure if it would be easier: traveling with a child is always a hassle.

I cannot stress enough that my answer to you only covers the situation where the child would have been born in the USA/elsewhere. If born in the UK, they would either have a British passport (father) and an Irish passport (mother), or be included on the father's British passport and have an Irish passport (mother).

[Later edit]: @harriethattie is correct to remind me that if the parents are not married at the time of birth, a child born abroad from a British father and an Irish mother would have to be registered for British citizenship. To the above and conversely, I will add that if born in the UK, the father will pass on his nationality/citizenship, subject to proof of paternity (simple DNA test required, which cannot be mandated, or Court order).

I encountered this tension when myself and my friend and writing partner Philip Arditti were cast in a racially blind production of Henry V at Shakespeare’s Globe. Henry V is perhaps the most straightforward of Shakespeare’s histories – plays that deal with the ups and downs of the British crown. Set during the hundred years war with France, it follows King Henry, a former party boy who writes himself into history on the battlefield at Agincourt and returns home victorious despite his relatively small army. Phil and I, both outsiders to Britishness in different ways, found ourselves on stage every night portraying soldiers fighting for an England we couldn’t define. Was this progress? This question gnawed at us throughout the run, highlighting our broader experiences of living and working in England today. We talked about rehearsal room microaggressions, undergoing the citizenship process, and whether to stick with our native accents or convert to received pronunciation.

The result of these conversations was a history play of our own: English Kings Killing Foreigners. It is a dark comedy about casting controversy and English cultural identity. We hope that, by sharing our experiences, we can contribute to the discourse surrounding Shakespeare and England in a way that takes the focus off the actors on the stage and places it back where it belongs: the wounds that still fester on the battlefield that is Shakespeare.

The death of a national sweetheart.  A friendship tested by a bloody act.  An infamous production of Shakespeare's Henry V. 

A tell-all dark comedy that peels back the skin of English cultural identity to reveal the steaming battlefields that lies beneath. Would you die for your country?

From rehearsal room microaggressions, to the battlefields of France, into the bureaucracy of applying for citizenship, Shakespeare's Globe Ensemble veterans Nina Bowers and Philip Arditti explore their histories alongside England's own as unwilling actors in a national story.

Bullshit. No, seriously. Bullshit. US Citizenship CANNOT be revoked from a natural born citizen (Steve was very famously born in New York and therefor a US Citizen from the instant of his birth), period. it's covered under the 14th amendment. Steve was never an immigrant, he never took a citizenship test, even the VERY thin margin the government has to strip citizenship from naturalized citizens does not apply. They can-not strip him of his citizenship. And exile is not a law on the federal books of the United States, in fact is ALSO declared unconstitutional under the 4th amendment's provisions against cruel and unusual punishment. It exists in mothballs in a couple of STATE constitutions but it is functionally impossible to exile any naturalized citizen from the United States. The president also can't just unilaterally charge and then convict a man of treason which is a VERY serious law under US federal code and nearly impossible to prosecute specifically because the way US treason law was written made it hard to prosecute ON PURPOSE because of the way British law bandied about the expression in the time before and during the revolution. Even if he is exercising his rights as commander-in-chief Steve isn't a member of the US Military anymore, they paid out his pension. In short, this doesn't make sense from just about any even basically logical angle you look at it with and Steve only has to speak one word to a lawyer and he'd bring this administration down around its ears.

do you have any tips for Americans looking to move to Australia?

yes! under the cut because this is LONG.

there are 3 ways you can get citizenship here; via skilled occupations, school, or a WHV.

Skilled Occupations. If you google "Australia skilled occupations list", a list of them should come up. Basically, order to gain citizenship here, you need to score 30 points on a 40 point test; having different abilities gains you more points etc. You gain and lose points for things like being a native English speaker, being between 27 and 35 (this is the age range worth the most points; they go down on either side as you'll "contribute" most to society if you arrive between those ages), but you almost 100% for sure cannot score enough points to pass if you don't have a skilled occupation. They update this list every so often, but if you're not going via the other 2 options I'm about to list, you'll have to get a "non sponsored" one off here. It includes everything from plumbing to nursing to pilates instructor, etc. more trade-based stuff but there's some random shit in there. you have to have proven qualifications that you can do this job, and experience with this job in the US. You get additional points, and way more jobs are added in, if you agree live in a remote area when arriving to Australia for 3 years. If you get this with a regular skilled occupation, you get approved for the visa and then can find a job after. There are also "sponsored" occupations on this list, with WAY more job options, where you get an employer first and then the employer co-signs on the visa, but you will likely not get one of those without one of the following:

Working Holiday Visa. This is what I'm on! A working holiday visa (462 is the visa type for Americans, not to be confused with the way more lax 417 for British people) entitles people under the age of 32 (you have to apply before your 31st birthday and then have one year to enter the country) to work in Australia for 1 year, theoretically to supplement your traveling [I am not traveling]. If you spend 88 days of this year working in hospitality in a remote area [basically, the middle of the outback or the far north tropics] or on a produce farm anywhere, that 1 year gets extended to a 2nd year. If you spend 6 months of the 2nd year doing that type of work, you get extended to a 3rd year. The 2nd and 3rd years don't have to be redeemed right away; you can go home for a couple months or years in between if you want. So what one would do, if they're after citizenship, is spend the first year living and working here to build connections, do the farm work, and spend your 2nd year acquiring a SPONSORED job from the skilled occupations list! I have known people who are sponsored by their employers as a massage therapist, as a nail tech, as a bar manager, etc. You can also do it with 9-5 type jobs; Graphic Design is on the sponsored skilled occupation list, and that's the pipeline I have been seeking to go down since I planned this out.

Student Visa. this is the hardest of the 3 just because it's the most expensive. I almost did this one with an actual degree when I was 18 because at that point I was about to be spending a shitload on school anyway, but I chickened out. Something worth noting is that you can go to school for ANYTHING and be eligible for this, so a lot of people with no other options will go for the cheapest trade course they can find a class for and do that. Anyways, on a student visa you're allowed to work 20 hours a week during the time you are in school, and then have a 9 month grace period after you complete your course where you can 40 hours a week before you have to go back home. Similarly, you would use this grace period to find an employer willing to sponsor you.

Get married. If you can't find a job on a student or WHV for sponsorship, I guess just find a husband.

hope this helps and isn't just telling you stuff you already know! my main tip is that you have to be IN the country to get a less-skilled sponsorship, so I would either REALLY say you're gonna do it, and start a career in one of the skilled ones in option 1, or just get on over here on a WHV or student visa and figure the rest out as you go :)

rant under the cut

having a conversation at dinner about the british citizenship test our italian housemate has to take and we joked that the majority of us being british probably wouldnt even know most of the answers

so i decide to take it and the question “who built the tower of london?” comes up and i answer “william the conqueror”

housemate b we shall call them is instantly like “um actually william the conqueror didnt build it himself though, did he”

im sorry i didnt realise we were taking the phrase “william the conqueror built the tower of london” literally. i thought the use of peasant labour was implied.

if this was an isolated incident then like whatever man but this is following like so many instances of being “um actually’d” and like treating every conversation like its a fucking competition of who can be the most right. like shut the fuck up. its literally exhausting im getting to the point where i have to think through every fucking sentence before it leaves my mouth because i dont want to get corrected on something that just doesnt fucking matter? ugh

The Hugh Grant Oscar interview should be added to the British citizenship test. If you find it rude, you fail
