CITIZENSHIP BY INVESTMENT
Many years ago, the opportunity to obtain second citizenship was limited to marriage, birth rights and lifetime residency. With the introduction of the Citizenship by Investment (CBI) Programme, high-net-worth and hardworking individuals are now able to enjoy the benefits of having multiple citizenships. CWA processes CBI applications directly in St. Kitts and Nevis and can also facilitate citizenship applications in any of the countries that currently offer economic citizenship including Antigua and Barbuda, Dominica, Grenada, St. Lucia, Turkey and Vanuatu. Applications can be processed under any available investment option.
ADVANTAGES OF MULTIPLE CITIZENSHIPS
Some of the many advantages of multiple citizenships include:
- Short-term investment in exchange for a lifetime citizenship
- Ease of travelling as CBI jurisdictions have visa-free access to over 100 countries
- The ability to live and work freely in multiple countries
- The ability to own property in multiple jurisdictions
- Leaving a family legacy with rights such as citizenship by descent
- Educational opportunities for children
- Increased chances of visa approvals
- Security and peace of mind of being a citizen of a country with a stable government and economy
- Residency is optional not mandatory
- A safety net for the family in an unpredictable word
Citizenship Process*
Service Contract is executed and CWA sends the Client the application package and invoice for professional fees and pre-submission fees.
Client starts preparing documents and pays invoice. Once documents are ready, the Client sends a scan of the entire application to CWA for review.
Once CWA confirms that the application is ready for submission, hard copies are shipped to the relevant jurisdiction
Application is submitted to the Citizenship by Investment (CBI) Authority upon the credit of pre-submission fees to the Authority’s account
Upon approval of application, CWA will forward the approval letter from the CBI Authority as well as payment instructions for the post-approval fees and investment amount to the Client.
CONGRATULATIONS! YOU ARE HALFWAY THROUGH THE PROCESS!
Client wires investment amount directly to the CBI Authority’s account (to the developer’s escrow agent for Real Estate applications) and post-approval fees to CWA’s account. Upon clearance of funds, the CBI Authority will issue the citizenship certificates and supporting documents for the passport application (Some jurisdictions require the completion of an Oath of Allegiance)
Scanned copies of the citizenship certificates are sent to client and upon approval, passport applications are submitted. After the freshly issued passports are collected, scans will be sent for approval to the Client. Upon the Client’s confirmation, the passports and citizenship certificates are immediately shipped to the Client’s destination of choice.
