British citizenship by descent

Post by puppajani » Mon Feb 17, 2020 2:24 am

Hi,

I am an EU national with a PR and soon will be applying for BC.

I want to know that If I become BC does that mean that my children will automatically become BC?

Kind Regards,

Children born on or after the date on your naturalisation certificate, yes (they will be British citizens by descent).
Children born before the date on your naturalisation certificate, no (they will need to meet the requirements for being registered as British citizens).
I am not a lawyer or immigration advisor. My statements/comments do not constitute legal advice. E&OE. Please do not PM me for advice.
