Inconsistent identity records
Names, dates, family relationships, and addresses that do not match across jurisdictions trigger avoidable clarification.
The End-to-End Process
The clock starts after the File.
An advertised processing window measures government review. Your real timeline begins earlier, with fit, evidence, documents, and counterparties.

Preparation controls the real Clock.
The filing date is not the start of the engagement. Fit screening, nationality checks, source-of-funds reconstruction, civil documents, apostilles, translations, and payment planning all happen first.
A rushed submission does not shorten government diligence. It creates questions, document requests, and rework after the file is already visible to the authority.
One file. Seven controlled Hand-offs.
- 01Fit and conflict screen.
- 02Source-of-funds and source-of-wealth readiness.
- 03Civil-document collection, apostilles, and translations.
- 04Agent review and engagement clearance.
- 05Submission and government due diligence.
- 06Approval, contribution settlement, and final issuance steps.
- 07Passport delivery, maintenance calendar, and wider Stack sequencing.
Delay usually enters before the Authority.
Unreconciled Bitcoin history
A current wallet without an acquisition and tax narrative leaves the most important question unanswered.
Third-party timing
Registries, translators, apostille authorities, banks, and local counsel each control one hand-off in the chain.
Changing the plan mid-file
Adding dependants, changing settlement routes, or revising the jurisdiction after diligence begins resets work.
Issuance is a milestone, not the Finish.
After approval, the position still needs a maintenance calendar: passport validity, physical-presence rules, family registrations, tax-residence facts, banking, and any entity layer.
If your endgame is cutting US tax citizenship entirely, that is its own sequenced project. Exitly runs US renunciation end to end: CLN filing, exit-tax compliance, State Department scheduling, and covered-expatriate analysis. (Launching Q3 2026.) Until then, /us-exit sizes the exposure so the order of operations is clear.
Program-Specific Starting Points
A defined program uses its own paid screen.
These are distinct from the universal Sovereignty Strategy Session for bespoke and undecided clients.

Common Questions
Questions about timelines and process.
Usually not. Program timelines commonly describe the period after a complete file is submitted. Source-of-funds work, civil documents, apostilles, translations, and pre-screening happen before that clock.
You can reduce preventable delay by starting with a complete identity record, a coherent source-of-funds file, responsive counterparties, and no mid-file changes. You cannot responsibly bypass government diligence.
The exact order is program-specific and must follow the authority and agent instructions in the engagement. Settlement planning happens before submission, but irreversible funds should not move on an assumed sequence.
Track validity, renewal, physical-presence, family, residence, tax, and reporting obligations. The citizenship then has to be integrated into the wider jurisdictional architecture rather than left as a document in a safe.
