I don't think the U.S. recognizes dual citizenship anymore. A girl I work with has dual citizenship in Canada, but she was told that if she lived in the U.S. and wanted the benefits of citizenship, that she would have to renounce her Canadian citizenship there.

Unless she has her information wrong or I am misunderstanding.
