I only found out about this recently :wacko:

Dual Citizenship

A long discussion concerning Belgian nationality has finally come to an end with a very positive outcome for Belgians living in the United States.

Since the publication on 30 April 2008 of the new Royal Decree in the Belgian Official Journal of Laws, all Belgian citizens who voluntarily acquire another nationality can keep their Belgian nationality.

The new change of law is good news for the Belgians in the U.S. , many of whom have hesitated for a long time to become naturalized Americans because they wanted to retain their Belgian citizenship.

Ik zit met een ei en ik moet het kwijt.

Heel die immigratierommel is voor mij vlot verlopen maar nu dat de finish in zicht is beginnen ze ineens moeilijk te doen. Na twee jaar was het dus tijd om een aanvraag "removal of conditions" aan te vragen.. zo gezegd zo gedaan, formulierke, een pak geld en ne hoop papperassen opgestuurd ... vingerafdrukken en een nieuw fotooke laten nemen, alles vlotjes en geen vuiltje aan de lucht... OK dus ikke relaxed wachten op mijn nieuwe green card...no problemo want ik heb een automatische verlenging van een jaar gekregen...

En nu krijg ik ineens een "request for evidence" aan mijn been gelapt, gaan ze wat met mijn Belgische voeten rammelen...

Wat willen die sjarels nu nog? Ze hebben massa's documenten in mijn dossier... gezamelijke bankrekening, autoverzekering, ziekte- en levensverzekering via mijn werk met mijn vrouw als begunstigde etc etc...

Ze zouden wel eens meer specifiek mogen zijn omtrent hetgeen dat zenog willen zien zenne...

Sorry zenne, maar het moest eruit blush.gif

By RAF CASERT, Associated Press Writer
Thu Dec 14, 6:55 PM ET

BRUSSELS, Belgium - Suddenly and shockingly, Belgium came to an end. State television broke into regular programming late Wednesday with an urgent bulletin: The Dutch-speaking half of the country had declared independence and the king and queen had fled. Grainy pictures from the military airport showed dark silhouettes of a royal entourage boarding a plane.

Only after a half hour did the station flash the message: "This is fiction."

It was too late. Many Belgians had already fallen for the hoax.

Frantic viewers flooded the call center of the RTBF broadcaster that aired the stunt. Embassies called Belgian authorities to find out what was going on, while foreign journalists scrambled to get confirmation.

"Ambassadors who were worried asked what they had to tell their capitals," said Senate Chair Anne-Marie Lizin. "This fiction was seen as a reality and it created a catastrophic image of the country."

RTBF defended the program, saying it showed the importance of debate on the future of Belgium. But the network won few friends.

OK, I've got the flu so bear with me a bit, my brains feel mushy :P
All I do is, fill out this one sheet (the one where I choose my preferred way of voting) and then mail that back to the embassy, correct?


Exactly. There's not much to it.

Belgians residing in the USA will receive mail from the consulate: forms to register for the upcoming Belgian parliamentary elections in 2007.
No need to go to the consulate if you wanna vote, you can do it by mail.
