Steve Wozniak returned Thursday afternoon after news he was seeking an Australian citizenship. But Woz doesn't want to be an Aussie. Instead he wants tolive in New Zealand.
Stepping off an 11-hour flight, the Apple co-founder and "Dancing with the Stars" alum confirmed reports that he's applied for Australian citizenship, that he had no interest in dropping his American citizenship and thathe and his wife, Janet Hill, simply love New Zealand.
Australia and New Zealand have few restrictions for their residents when it comes to living in the other'scountry, with New Zealand's approach being almost seamless :
If you’re an Australian citizen you will usually beallowed to live, work or study in New Zealand and won't need toapply for any type of visa before traveling .
Woz's plan to keep his American citizenship means he will enjoy no taxadvantages, and, infact, he will pay more.
