Send it to them (but use a secure method to send and always keep a certified copy)- if they are still not satisfied then you would need to apply for a Certificate of British Nationality Status from the Home Office using form NS.
Also look Into whether you have a document that the hospital may have given at the time of your birth, usually around that time hospitals although they didn't register your birth they gave you a document to confirm your birth, date, time and the mothers name on it. I forgot the name of that documen...
If the PR document indicates date on which PR was acquired- and child was born after this date- it should not be necessary to re-evidence PR as part of a passport application. However- it's important that you keep (for life) all records surrounding PR, work in the U.K., etc. and in addition, always ...
My parents had asked the officials to register me as a citizen as an infant, but were told that it wasn't necessary since I was already a British citizen by birth. What exactly is meant by "asked the officials"? Was an application sent to the Home Office for you to be registered as a British citizen?
Based on the facts given, it's not clear how there could be any claim to British citizenship. Perhaps the questions asked are intended to elucidate if perhaps you might have a permanent resident status (ILR) that's not been lost or revoked although that appears unlikely. Did you parents never apply ...
There is no intention to give false reassurance, etc.- and it's already noted that there likely will be anomalies in individual cases. However, instead of giving credence to every newspaper article (speculation) and "leaked" document, perhaps it would be more productive to at least conduct a self-as...
There is a choice and you can select the better option- section 3(5). You should be aware that section 3(5) registration does not require the children to have Permanent Residence. 3 years residence is enough- applies to child and both parents, usually- and both parents normally need to sign the appl...
She can apply on either the 3 or 5 year route. 3 year route she needs husbands passport and she needs the marriage cert. Separated is fine as long as not divorced, if applying on spouse of BC 3 year route. Spouses passport is not required for 3 year route- it's not obligatory for spouse to even hav...
There are some married couples who live apart for long periods at a time, for one reason or another. You may want to investigate all the legal implications of being married- taxation, financial support, inheritance, property, Social Security, insurance, etc.- would you consider getting married if po...
The Isle of Man and Channel Islands have a complex relationship with the United Kingdom in terms of what immigration statuses can transfer and which ones cannot (and you'd need an immigration solicitor to give more specific advice). However- British citizenship from the Channel Islands or Isle of Ma...
Form AN does ask for spouse/partner's address. But where is spouse actually "living"? Even if spending time temporarily in the United States- has that person maintained a United Kingdom address and/or valid U.K. immigration permit? GB/NI driving licence held? Filing U.K. income tax returns? (as a re...
In what name was her previous British passport issued? (using the example names above). What does her U.K. birth certificate say for first and last name? What's your view on what "family name" your daughter should use for U.K. purposes going forward? All this is relevant because the Passport Office ...
If you have permanent resident status/PR Card you should not be asked to re-evidence worker registration status. Although you were correct to keep copies- this is something you should always do (for life) with all immigration/citizenship documentation.
Are you being serious? It is unreasonable because there are no guarantees that these supposed rights we're going to to acquire, if ever, will be for life. Any British court can throw our rights out of the window if and when they please. Let me explain that to you in other words: this is a deliberat...
We know his father was born in Birmingham uk but that's all he is British citizen, If you have his name and (approximate) age and (approximate) place of birth you may still be able to track down his birth certificate. Perhaps contact the General Register Office for England and Wales: https://www.go...
It will likely be a lot simpler to get the child a British consular birth certificate and then use that document to get a British passport. https://www.gov.uk/register-a-birth
How would we go about checking out f the home office had any of these files? We have his birth certificate but it only shows his fathers name and where he lived at that time. We are willing to apply for citizenship but we're thinking if she was already settled then maybe there was anyway to get hol...
You would have to renounce your British citizenship in order to get Spanish citizenship. Although it depends on what exactly "renounce" means in this context. If it only means declaring a renunciation to the Spanish authorities, this has no effect under British law. It's agreed with earlier posters...
He needs to either show that his mother was a British citizen/settled when he was born or apply to register as a British citizen- in order to get a British passport. His mother might (or might not) have an immigration file in Home Office archives somewhere, or an arrival record at the National Archi...
In addition to the points already made, I see no reason to have to send away her 1973 British passport. Her registration certificate is all that matters. Had she never obtained a British passport- or if it was lost, etc.- it would not be any impediment to getting a new passport. The option to send c...
The thing is we don't yet know what 'settled' will mean after Brexit. The existing DCPR will not be valid. We don't know who and how will be considered a permanent resident. Things can still change- negotiations with the EU and necessary legislation in Parliament- however, you can read the current ...
Naturalised Irish citizens should not assume that their citizenship will automatically be revoked due to inadvertent non-compliance with this requirement. They should, however, be aware that it's a possibility. Being "aware" of something doesn't really add any value in itself- what specific actions...
