Practice question
A Filipino also holds citizenship of Country A but works for pay in Country B. The person has none of the disqualifying statuses in B and satisfies the other Section 3(g) requirements. An officer denies classification solely because the worker has any second citizenship anywhere. What is wrong with that categorical test?
- Any second citizenship necessarily removes Filipino citizenship under all circumstances
- It ignores the country-specific language and the worker’s continuing Filipino citizenship
- Citizenship of A conclusively establishes citizenship of B
- The definition contains no Filipino requirement
- Only the employer may define an OFW
