    My wife is a 3rd generation Irish immigrant, meaning she can apply for dual citizenship and I can get Irish citizenship as a “needed specialist.”

    It’s not the easiest escape plan, especially since it would mean abandoning her aging father, but at least we can get out of here if/when the Brown Shirts come for us.

      We’re looking in the same direction, since I qualify under the same program. I’m looking at companies to start communicating with about job opportunities now.

        I might have put my generations wrong, her grandfather was born in Ireland, so I think you’re right in that she’s actually a second generation immigrant.
