Living in UK since 1970 doesn't mean that a person automatically become British Citizen. Tax receipts, birth certificate, mark sheet or national insurance number are in no way proof of British Citizenship.DaisyG12 wrote:If you born in Canada, then you must have the citizenship of Canada, even though several years have passed away. Simultaneously, if your parents are British and and your are living since long in UK, then you should also get the UK citizenship.
Now, what you need to do is to make all your proofs documented first, then only you can make someone trust you. The tax receipt, your birth certificate, your mark sheets, national insurance number etc will definitely work for you to get the things documented easily. After getting all the things in proper documented form, you can apply for being a UK citizen officially.
Kitty's questions are very relevant to establish OP's status in UK.Kitty wrote:Katchin, are your parents still alive? Can they fill in any gaps in the history of your citizenship/nationality?
Did they take any steps other than adopting you in Canada (presumably under Canadian law)? How did they bring you back to the UK? (were you named on their passports etc?) Did they register your adoption in the UK?
