QUESTION:
I am a dual US/Canadian citizen (born in US, just became Canadian, live in
Canada).  I am planning a vacation to Peru this year and am having trouble
finding information as to which passport to show to enter the US (the flight
will have a layover there) and Peru, then when I return to Canada.
========================================================
david ingram replies:
A US citizen should always use their US citizenship (and passport if they have one) to enter the US.
A Canadian citizen should always use their Canadian citizenship (and passport if they have one) to enter Canada.
You can use either to enter Peru.  However, if you got on the plane as an American, you would be better off and face less questions landing as an American in Peru.
