A Bloomberg News reporter would like to interview accidental Americans who wish to renounce but are awaiting the announced lowering of the fee back to the $450, which it was prior to being hiked to $2350 in 2014 hike. In response to a case initiated by l’Association des Américains accidentals in US District Court (District of Columbia), the US Department of State notified the Court in January 2023, shortly prior to the scheduled hearing on the matter, that it would reduce the renunciation fee to $450, but to date has given no indication of when the decrease is to take effect.
Fabien Lehagre of l’Association des Américains accidentals notified me of the request from the Bloomberg reporter. He mentions that one may remain anonymous and that, although Bloomberg is an English language news site, the interview can be done in French.
If you’d like to be interviewed by Bloomberg News, please contact Fabien at president@americains-accidentels.fr
