Thanks Brother. However they are saying

"one of your parents was British citizen, British overseas territories citizen, British overseas citizen or British subject when you were born."

When he was born I was not holding the citizenship.

Any other ways for the child to get the passport renewed?

Thanks -

"1. you’ve lived in the UK or a British overseas territory for at least 3 years before the date of your application
2. you were in the UK or a British overseas territory exactly 3 years before the Home Office receives your application"

I went to vfs to renew both mine and my daughter's Indian passport. They accepted mine but not my daughter's as my husband is British citizen by naturalisation.
She was born in India while both of us were Indian citizen. They just took her application without the original passport and said if there is any change in decision will call us to submit the passport and the fee.
It seems they started implementing this rule few weeks back.
I have already booked tickets to India for July as the prices were skyrocketing ... Now I am afraid that I will lose my money as the British citizenship process is slow

Hi,
Did you hear back from VFS about your daughter's Passport renewal. I am in a similar situation and would like to know if you have resolved. Thanks.

Hi All,

Firstly apologies if this is not the correct section as i am not entirely sure where should i be putting this query.

Background:
Got British passport in Nov 2021 via 10 year route.
Wife and kid still on Indian passport and having FLR visa. Second renewal due in March 2024 (i.e. for 5 yrs).

I was recently told that after renouncing my indian passport the minor passport also gets renanciated based on (Indian Citizenship Act, 1955). I was not aware of this clause and it seems that the govt is highlighting this clause during OCI application. Not sure if this was made evident during earlier OCI process.

I went through some other post highlighting this rule which dates back but there was no concrete answers for the same.

So my query is
1. Is my child who currently holds an indian passport stateless ?
2. Can i travel with him using indian passport ? Will there be any issues during the travel ?
3. If by any chance he is stateless which route should i take during renewal (should i apply for FLR or Stateless application for him)?

Is anyone in similar situation or faced this issue ?

Kind Regards,
Shiney
