Independent presidential candidate Terry Gou has confirmed that artist Lai Peixia will serve as his deputy, but controversy arose due to dual nationality. Lai Peixia immigrated to the United States when she was young and still has American citizenship. Gou's campaign revealed that it has been started by lawyers. Handle the renunciation procedure and try to complete the formalities and register to run for the election before November 24th. There have been successful cases in the past. In 2011, Lin Ruixiong obtained the certificate of renunciation of US citizenship within 60 days in order to partner with James Soong in the election. The office also stated that he will definitely do so. We will fully cooperate and handle it as soon as possible.
Lai Pei-hsia, who played the role of President of the Justice Party Lin Yuezhen, stepped out of the play. This time she will be Gou Taiming's deputy, but she may be trying to put out the fire. Now she has been kicked out and has American citizenship. This morning (15th), Lai Pei-xia also discussed the meeting with her lawyer again. So we will submit the application to AIT as soon as possible. Is it so simple to just give up?
Lu Yijing said, "After you get such an application form for renunciation of U.S. citizenship, fill it out and submit it to AIT. It will take 10 working days to review, and then they will arrange for you to come for an interview. When the interview comes, You have to pay a processing fee of about NT$70,000." New Taipei City Legislative Candidate Wu Zheng said, "It is actually a large amount of money. In the future, AIT will send the entire relevant information back to the State Department of the United States for review. It took me almost 2 months before and after. Wu Zheng, who also gave up his American citizenship for the election in the past, specially reminded Lai Peixia that it is not impossible if she wants to complete the procedures before the deadline of 11/24 to register for the election. Especially when there are successful examples to follow.”
In 2011, Lin Ruixiong had to obtain a certificate of renunciation of American citizenship within 60 days in order to partner with Soong Chu-yu. The timing was almost the same. He received the certificate on 9/26 and swore the renunciation during the interview on 9/27. After receiving the certificate on 11/21, it was officially fertilized and went smoothly. It is registered on the 24th, but generally speaking, after the documents are sent to the U.S. State Department, the review time ranges from 3 to 6 months, all related to the applicant’s property tax status.
Lawyer Li Yusheng said, "The U.S. State Department must understand why it wants to renounce its U.S. citizenship, whether it is to escape debts to get out of business, or whether it is to evade taxes, etc. The State Department will only approve the renunciation of nationality after confirming that there are no problems. Therefore, the general process has a number of steps. Months' time." Huang Shixiu, spokesman for Terry Gou's bid, said, "It's a bit rushed, but we have seen some precedents, and some can actually be done within 2 months, so it's not that it can't be done, it's just that we will Everything will be handled in accordance with legal procedures." It can be said that Lai Peixia is desperate for this election. Lai Peixia showed that she is determined to serve the voters. Guo Laipei and her partner dominated the topic right from the start.
