The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source for each breakdown it prices, in USD (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences for one breakdown), so a page that gives figures for several breakdowns gives one for each and N counts 4 figures, never sentences; 77 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): the cost and paperwork of the act itself, as a dated series rather than a snapshot: the Certificate of Loss of Nationality fee at every value it has held ($450 from 2010, $2,350 from 2014, back to $450 by the final rule of 13 March 2026), each quoted from the Federal Register rule that set it and checked against the current Schedule of Fees in 22 CFR 22.1; beside it the filing set - Form 8854, its due date tied to the dual-status return, the $10,000 penalty, and the relief procedure that waives the tax for a bounded class. The derivation nobody publishes is the total out-of-pocket cost of renouncing on a given date, fee plus filing, and the fee's own history on one line.", "embed": "
