US Travel on VWP after nationality change

[boylove]

Hi All,
I used to hold a non-VWP country's passport and had a US B1/B2 visa stamped on it, which is still valid. I had travelled to US on it quite a few times.
Now, I have changed nationality (UK) and come under VWP. Do I need to declare my previous passport (now invalid) at US port of entry? Or can I just use VWP on my new passport? Or do I need to move the Visa to new passport or the old one is still valid?
What is the rule? I have searched everywhere but couldn't find an answer. What have people done in this situation before? Please guide me here. Thanks for your comments/help.

Is there any one travelled US after nationality change using VWP and denied VISA before nationality change.

Thanks

I was in exactly the same situation - you don't need to do anything. Just travel to the US with your UK passport. You don't need a visa in your UK passport, and you don't have to "declare" your old nationality.

John, maybe you could put this up as a sticky, as it's always coming up.

Please note that US VISA has been denied under 221(g) before nationality change. Now I am british. Do you mean I still do not VISA? Thanks

Well, in that case I suppose you *do* need a visa. If you have ever been denied a visa to the US, in whatever passaport, I think you still need a visa.

Kayalami / others may confirm.
