https://www.usds.gov/join#who https://www.usds.gov/join#who says they are only accepting US citizens. However https://www.usds.gov/join#application https://www.usds.gov/join#application only asks if you are authorized to work in the US, and says 'For some positions US citizenship is required'. So are there any positions that do not require US citizenship, or should that application form just ask if you are a citizen?

- csharpminor 10y agoI can't answer on their behalf, but I do know that the security clearance process generally prohibits non-citizens. You can get a Limited Access Authorization (LAA) in some cases. Given that USDS frequently works on sensitive infrastructure, I think there's a strong chance that citizenship is a requirement.
- jilljennV 10y agoIf you're not a US citizen, you can build an equivalent of the USDS in the country to which you belong ;) If you are not a citizen of any country though…
- tvanantwerp 10y agoMost DC Federal jobs like the ones at USDS require citizenship. I know because I live in DC and my wife is not a citizen, drastically limiting her options.
