Switching Citizenship
Hi,

I have just become a U.S. citizen past month. However at the time of obtaining the working visa/HK ID card (6 month ago), I was still a Chinese citizen. Now my U.S. passport has no indication of having the employment visa. Anybody know how this situation should be handled, do I need to get another working visa for the U.S. passport, or somehow it can just be transferred? Thank you.

Take your paperwork to immigration and they should be able to switch it for you. Takes an hour or so.
