RESPONSE: If it was consciously omitted, it is wrong! I tried googling for any 
info from the Portuguese Postal Authorities and came up with nothing.

RESPONSE: Paulo, while job-hunting in the UK, are there any negative 
connotations associated if one states one is of Portuguese citizenship? Is it 
possible these people are hiding the fact that they are not of British 
citizenship rather than that they are Portuguese citizens?

Recently, there were a few high-profile deportation cases of illegal residents 
of Portuguese citizenship from Toronto. Although there are deportations on a 
weekly basis, I don't know why and how the Portuguese received the extra 
attention. There is an ongoing case of a family of Costa Rican origin that has 
struck a raw cord among many citizens.
