Should immigrants to Ireland be allowed to hold dual citizenship status?
Multiple citizenship, also called dual citizenship is a person's citizenship status, in which a person is concurrently regarded as a citizen of more than one state under the laws of those states. There is no international convention which determines the nationality or citizen status of a person, which is defined exclusively by national laws, which vary and can be inconsistent with each other. Some countries do not permit dual citizenship. Most countries that permit dual citizenship still may not recognize the other citizenship of its nationals within its own territory, for example, in relation to entry into the country, national service, duty to vote, etc.

Yes but there should be a citizenship course and test like that of those in other countries, as well as a required minimum amount of time spent living in this country
@9ZCJ225 2mos2MO
Yes as long as they are actively contributing to our society, paying taxes, working etc. no violent, sexual based criminal record
@9Z9B9Y42mos2MO
As long as they aren’t illegal have a criminal record or anything negative and have worked and lived in Ireland for 10 years then yes
@9HM7ZJW1yr1Y
yes, base on their background. (Criminal, and terrorism). Also, they need to proof that they have been working in ireland and paying their own share of taxes.
@9L5M92H10mos10MO
Ireland should enforce more searches on background on imigrants and ayslum seekers but that doesnt mean they miss treat them or treat them like poeple who can do anything they want
Yes but they should have to pay tax for as long as they have the Irish citizenship even if they go to another country
@9NSJFNZ8mos8MO
If willing to work and have a positive impact on the society they join and be inclusive to the community as opposed to burden on the social welfare system
@9N6X3748mos8MO
Yes, Irish citizens are allowed to hold dual citizens - immigrants that become irish citizens should be treated equally.
@9MCWSGP8mos8MO
Yes, but similarly to Australia this process should should have criminal vetting and people should be working in the country for 3-5 years before it is allowed
@99MFYPQ2yrs2Y
It depends. Only by having an Irish parent and not buying one but also not given out to people with big crimes and no link to the country.
Yes, if they are contributing to our government and live in the country for more then three years
@8C5RDBV4yrs4Y
Partially, but not with complete citizenship status.
@9BMJ6KJ2yrs2Y
Yes, so long as they pay tax.
@99V72GY2yrs2Y

@8RVHWXH4yrs4Y
Yes, as long as they stay for the required time to gain citizenship and don't commit crimes and/or terrorism
@8RQ5ZYP4yrs4Y
Yes, if they've lived here long enough to call Ireland home and haven't committed any severe crimes
@8H4GD784yrs4Y
If it works for Northern Ireland then immigrants to the United Kingdom be allowed to hold dual citizenship status
Yes, unless they have committed an act of terrorism or have Israeli citizenship, or have caused human rights injury to Irish citizens, permanent residents, or current refugees/asylum seekers.
