“I’m a retiree under CSRS and am thinking of getting dual citizenship with Italy. Will having dual citizenship affect receiving my CSRS annuity? Can I lose it?”

Reg’s Response

You won’t lose your annuity by having dual citizenship with Italy. You would only have a problem receiving it if you moved to a blocked country, such as North Korea.
