Naturalized U.S. citizens can lose their U.S. citizenship if and only if they expatriate or are denaturalized. Misrepresentation on a legal permanent residence application, certain crimes, and leaving the United States within one year of naturalization to establish permanent residence elsewhere are all grounds for denaturalization. P.C. is a naturalized U.S. citizen.
  1. If P.C. loses her U.S. citizenship without being denaturalized, then she must have expatriated
  2. If P.C. does not expatriate, then she cannot lose her U.S. citizenship
  3. If P.C. is denaturalized, then she must have made a misrepresentation on her legal permanent residence application
  4. If P.C. has committed no crimes, then she cannot be denaturalized
  5. P.C. cannot lose her U.S. citizenship without being denaturalized
Explanation
Answer: A - This question concerns a situation where there are two ways for naturalized U.S. citizens to lose U.S. citizenship, either by expatriation or denaturalization. In Response A, the situation is considered in which P.C. has lost her U.S. citizenship without being denaturalized. Expatriation is the only option remaining to explain the loss of U.S. citizenship.

Responses B and E are invalid because they fail to consider that there is more than one way for P.C. to lose U.S. citizenship. Responses C and D are about situations in which P.C. may or may not be denaturalized. These two responses are invalid because they fail to consider that there are several possible reasons for denaturalization.
