Right of abode - birth certificate query
Posted: Fri Apr 08, 2022 12:23 pm
Dear all,
Asking your opinion. I am claiming a certificate of entitlement for right of abode for my daughter. I (father) am a British citizen by naturalization for over 10 years, my daughter was born in India last year. Mother is Indian citizen.
On my daughter's Indian birth certificate, father's name is entered as "Surname Initial ALIAS Forename Surname" so eg "Smith J ALIAS John Smith". This was because I had initially used an Indian ID card at the hospital when my daughter was born. The Indian ID card has a different order of name to my passport - Surname Initial. So when I corrected the birth certificate they put the extra ALIAS and then my name in the correct order.
On my daughter's Indian passport, the father's name is correctly entered as my British passport name.
I also have marriage certificate showing fully correct names of mother and father.
I'm hoping the insertion of ALIAS on the birth certificate
I am hoping that this insertion of ALIAS is enough to prove Parenthood without any problems. Would people advise that I also do an additional affidavit to clear up the issue - to state Surname Initial is same person as Forename Surname?
