Hello all, the extraordinarily observant among you may have noticed from the summary of progress in our first year <https://www.w3.org/community/talent-signal/2020/02/05/one-year-in/> that the following properties which we proposed to schema.org a couple of months ago were recently accepted into the January release: * physical requirement * security clearance requirement * sensory requirement * applicationContact, * employerOverview Missing from that list is *citizenship requirement*. This is because Stuart Sutton raised a point <https://github.com/schemaorg/schemaorg/issues/2384#issuecomment-554768395> that I thought was worth bringing back here for further discussion: Phil, just a thought about "citizenship requirement". In the context of employment, I would think that the citizenship question goes to a candidate's legal work eligibility. Some of what HR Open Standards focuses on in this regard are: (a) eligibility types (e.g., "US noncitizen national", "alien authorized to work"; and (b) eligibility documentation (e.g., "permanent resident card", "US passport", "foreign passport with I-94/A form" etc.). Since a "citizenship requirement" might get to some of it, does it do the full trick? We had proposed : *|citizenshipRequirement|:* *Defintion:*Country of applicant's citizenship. *Expected Type:*Country, Text, Url Would this be better: *eligibilityToWorkRequirement: **Definition:* legal requirements such as citizenship, visa and other documentation required for an applicant to this job. *Expected Type:* Text ** I know Text is a blunt instrument here, but I am not keen on trying to come up with a globally applicable vocabulary for this. Are there many cases where citizenship is important if other criteria such as a work visa / green card are satisfied? Should we propose eligibilityToWorkRequirement /as well as/ citizenshipRequirement or /instead of/? (If we suggest both we need to be careful because it won't be clear whether they are alternatives or both required unless we alter the definition).
