| Deleted Member Member # 128 | Posted July 11, 2002 07:52 PM Witt is right. Most countries around the world have long ago changed their citizenship laws to exclude people born in the country to parents who are not citizens or at least permanent residents themselves. |

| Tokunbo Junior Member Member # 4341 | Posted July 13, 2002 04:39 PM Thanks.But i am not convinced with witts reply cos a friend with same problem left for UK last year after a lawyer handled her case. -------------------- cory |
| kiwinyc Member Member # 251 | Posted July 15, 2002 10:01 AM well it sounds like you should talk to the lawyer that handled your friends case rather than here! |
| Witt Member Member # 567 | Posted July 15, 2002 06:16 PM quote: and again, UK and Italian laws are not the same, you know |
| kiwinyc Member Member # 251 | Posted July 16, 2002 10:05 AM He said his friend had the same problem as him, and was successful - he's trying to get to the UK as well, on an Italian passport. |
