I was going to ask JAG on my base, but thought I'd ask here too. To own land in the Philippines you need to be a Citizen or born there. Even businesses you need 52% Filipino stock/ownership majority. I became a Naturalized Citizen so I could serve more than the allotted 8 years for Permanent Resident, but my parents are getting older and need to maintain my ancestral land in the family. Does anyone know how this works? Thank you for any information you can provide.

Unfortunately, You cannot owe allegiance to a second country and hold a security clearance, Dual citizenship establishes this conflict of interest. When my medical condition was going to determine that I would be separated, I informed my S-2 that I would be applying for dual citizenship in Italy, and would be terminating my clearance. You are going to have to make a choice.
