Thank you ,I think I have mixed up things
Thank you yes you get it right .secret.simon wrote: ↑Wed Oct 16, 2019 4:09 pmMy intelligent guess is that the OP's wife is an A8 EEA citizen, who were required to register on WRS (the Worker Registration Scheme, not British citizenship registration) if they wanted to work in the UK between 2004 and 2009/11(there was a court case about whether the extension was legal or not). The wife may not have complied with the requirements for the WRS registration, which may have rendered her PR before the child's birth invalid, thus invalidating the child's claim to British citizenship (i.e. if the requirements of the law were not met at the time of the birth of the child, the child never was a British citizen).
I think that the Passport office is demanding proof that the wife was either indeed compliant with the WRS requirement before the child's birth OR that the child be registered as a British citizen becuase the child was born before the wife acquired PR.
Can the OP confirm if my understanding is correct?
To the OP: Passports can be issued in error and during renewal it is possible to be asked to prove the basis of the claim to British citizenship even years into the future.
When and where was your daughter born?
When and where was your wife born?
When did she arrive in the UK?
When did she start working in the UK?
How old was she then?
How many hours did she work? What proof of dependency does she have? Is her mother also an EEA citizen?
Wait for the SAR. The SAR may answer the question as to when she acquired PR and also the reasons for that date.
Thank you for your reply , i talked to the case worker ,they said my wife PR dated 2015 and daughter born 2014 ,which is why we didn't renew her a passport. I applied for SAR ,once I received PR aquired date which is i believed before 2014(5 years continues between 2009-2013 ),it will solve the problem. They said once you received aquired date letter from the home office ,we will review your applicationsecret.simon wrote: ↑Fri Oct 18, 2019 5:10 pmHow old was she then?How many hours did she work?

If they are saying that the PR was acquired in 2015, then there is a reasonably good chance that the SAR will say the same. Home Office staff have access to the data in the SAR. Remember that the SAR is literally a copy of the data that the Home Office (or other government department) have on you.

When you get the SAR, it will likely contain notes on why the Home Office thinks that your wife acquired PR in 2015. Your wife can then contact them and try to get them to update their records by providing them with evidence that she acquired PR in 2013.
But, unless your wife can convince the Home Office that she acquired PR in 2013 with evidence, the best bet would be for your child to be registered as a British citizen under Section 1(3).
Thank you ,just to clarify .I remember my wife qualifying period was between 2009 to 2013 but applied for her PR in the end of October 2014. The date on the DCPR is Jan 2015 (this is not aquired date ) . The case worker thought because my daughter born in 2014 ,that's why they didn't renew ,but I am sure aquired date is somewhere 2013 .let's see I am waiting for SAR .vinny wrote: ↑Sat Oct 19, 2019 3:07 amIf your wife’s Polish parent was qualified person or had acquired PR, then it’s possible that she had automatically acquired PR, as a family member, sooner than 2015. You may have to look into her parents’ circumstances and her dependency on them after she was 21. They may have forgotten to include her time spent as a family member.
