1. Agency use of the Subject, which began in 1959,

continues to this date, at which time he is currently a

JMWAVE asset.

There is considerable correspondence on

record, including some in his security file, concerning

the Subject regaining his lost U. S. citizenship.

2. The attached dispatch, UFGS-1018 dated & February

1962, summarizes the results of previous inquiries into

this matter.

For your information, the Subject applied

for an immigrant visa in Caracas, Venezuela, and entered

the U. S. on that visa on 28 March 1962.

3.

Also attached herewith is a copy of UFGA-16973

dated 24 July 1964 which is self-explanatory. The advice

of the Alien Affairs Staff is again requested as to

whether or not Subject has any recourse in this matter,

or must wait the required five years as a Resident Alien.

Please keep in mind that the Department of State file on

the Subject could not be located when this matter was last

reviewed.

Whether or not a review of the Department's

file would prove beneficial is left to your judgement and

discretion.

4.

Please direct your reply to the Security Officer,

WH Division.
