Citizenship is defined as a relationship between an individual and a country involving the person's allegiance and membership to that country. You can lose your U.S. citizenship whether you're native or naturalized for several reasons.
For example, if you voluntarily undergo naturalization or take an oath of allegiance to another government or country, you could lose your citizenship. Unauthorized service in foreign armed forces, certain employment by a foreign government, voting in a foreign election, formal declaration of your desire to terminate citizenship, desertion, treason, and avoiding the draft are also reasons you might be stripped of your U.S. citizenship.
If you're an alien trying to naturalize to the U.S., failure to reveal an arrest or an attempt to misrepresent your criminal history can jeopardize your chances of naturalization because it violates the requirement that you be in good moral standing.
For more information regarding citizenship, contact a lawyer in your area who specializes in immigration law.
