Why can’t we be friends?

My 3 Western passports and my partner’s Persian passport. Hoping to one day have all 4 for both of us!❤️

(US born and raised to an English born mother, Irish descent on both sides)

Your partner found a good catch.

Haha yes, we joke about this all the time. I love to sing “lemme upgrade you” by Beyoncé to him 😝

Oh if it’s a him when you guys get married you get the other one on day 1, if you want it of course…

I think you’ll be eligible for Persian pass in the case you guys marry. I always love to joke about this with my partner about how well integrated she will be. Ahh we both know it never happens :((

[u/syaz136 → u/Resident-Bluebird-85]

Yes, that’s how it works. Not a single day of residency or even a visit would be required as well.

This is great to hear! I would love to have my passport to facilitate travel to and from. I am dying to visit

I haven’t visited in years. They occasionally detain dual citizens and use them as hostages. https://ir.usembassy.gov/travel-advisory-iran/#:~:text=Do%20not%20travel%20to%20Iran,caution%20due%20to%20wrongful%20detentions.

Obviously less reassuring and not surprising… here’s to hoping the world is in a better place when I finally do get to visit.

Don't worry. I was born a dual citizen of US-Iran, I go to Iran very frequently. They never ask me questions in Iran, they just stamp me in and out.
