A South African who wants to obtain the citizenship of another country has to apply to the Department of Home Affairs to retain his or her South African citizenship before acquiring that of the other country. Dual nationality or citizenship means that the person is regarded a citizen of both countries.’ – South African Government Services.
Many South Africans, who have at some point taken on another citizenship, have to their shock and dismay, learnt that their South African citizenship has been revoked. Due to a lack of understanding why this has happened, it has caused a great deal of anxiety and confusion for many South Africans.

South Arican in need!
Hi Fellow South Africans Expats,
A new member has asked us to share his resume and see if anyone can help him in his search for work in the Upstate
BRIEF RESUME OF BASIL JAMES CARPENTER
I am Rhodesian born, emigrated to South Africa, became a South African citizen and raised my family there, living and working in Johannesburg for 35 years. My wife and I emigrated to the U.S.A., in response to a calling from God, on 31st October 2009 and now live in Spartanburg South Carolina.
My own and my wife's background and experience are as follows.
(1.) Judge (Magistrate) (2) *Administration Manager, (3) *Assistant Company Secretary,(handling 6 Public, Stock Exchange listed companies), (4) Assistant Marketing Manager, (5)*Leasing Executive, (6) Property Consultant, (7) General Manager,(8) *Legal Adviser, (incorporating a very wide range of legal work/advice,including mercantile and insurance law, staturory compliance, financial and investment advice, tax, labor law,contracts, (principal contracts lawyer/draftsman) trademarks and intellectual property, health and safety, constitutional law,litigation.)
* I worked for Anglo Transvaal Consolidated Investment Company Ltd., Anglo American Property Services (Pty) Ltd.,Liberty Properties (Pty) Ltd. Liberty Life Association of Africa Ltd., Liberty Group Ltd., in the capacities asterisked above.
I was also self employed for a time as a Business Management Consultant, assisting small and medium sized businesses to align their trading and administrative practices to the existing laws and to best business practices, to the improvement of efficiency, effectiveness and profitability.
I presently am unemployed, am seeking suitable employment for myself, not necessarily in as senior position as any of the above but preferably in a clerical/administrative capacity where a considerable part of my experience lies, rather than in physical labour, although I have no objection to that as such. I just consider that I have more to offer and can add more value in the admistrative and clerical spheres of operation.
My wife Valerie Jeannette Carpenter, is presently employed cooking chicken for "Zaxby's" a fast food operation. She is a lifetime experienced and accomplished, high school teacher in science and mathematics, having successfully taught over a number of years the previously disadvantaged sections of the community in South Africa, in one year of intensive instruction, raising their matriculation symbols from C and D sometimes even E, to A and B so that many students obtained university entrance and study bursaries through her efforts and are now holders of engineering degrees.
Although a teaching position would be her obvious first choice, my wife was head of Science Department for many years and is a really hard worker and a brilliant organiser. She would be happy to accept a clerical or administrative position especially if it involved child or young people care or caring for the needy or underpriveleged.
An American type resume and also a South African type C.V. giving greater detail can be supplied on request.
