Do you believe that Treasury is accurately reporting the number of people renouncing U.S. citizenship? Given the long wait times in Canada, can the absurdly small number of renunciations reported by Treasury be accurate?
From @HelenBurggraf: Questions continue to be asked, as U.S. list of Q4 renunciants contains fewer than 300 names. Given wait times of up to one year to renounce in Canada this number cannot be believed and that's a #FATCA! https://t.co/8iVP3WOs9E

Closing renunciation centres in Halifax and Quebec City will increase wait times and make it more difficult for dual citizens to renounce
Friday Feb 28, 2020 the State Department announced that Halifax and Quebec City no longer processing renunciations of U.S. citizenship. Dual citizens in Canada must attend: Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, Vancouver or Calgary. Increased wait + more expense for those in Atlantic Canada
