My child born abroad in 2018.

By the time the child born we both mother and father are British citizens through
naturalization

Mother got BC 2016 Father got BC 2017

We bring back our child after 6 months of her birth through
Certificate of Entitlement to the Right of Abode

But from 2020 to 2022 we all are outside UK

Child passport is about to expire so thinking of applying British Passport for my child through
MN1 under 3(2)
If you were British citizens at the time your child was born then child is British (otherwise child would not have received CoE/RoA) - apply directly to HMPO for British passport when you are in the UK - MN1 is not relevant in this scenario.

We have questions on the below queries


• either parent (the parent in question) was a British citizen by descent at the time
of the child’s birth

(We both are British Citizens by naturalization at the time of child's birth)
Hope child is eligible for BC Child is British as mentioned above.


• the mother or father of the parent in question (the child’s grandparent) became
or but for their death would have become, a British citizen otherwise than by
descent either:
o on 1 January 1983
o at the time of the parent’s birth

Not sure on this question So you are applying for a passport? Grandparents' details are not relevant. Child's British citizenship is based on yours.


Any help in this regard would be highly appreciated.

Not sure this question is fall under the which category I posted here please move to the right category if required.
You are in the right category - please continue posting in this thread is you need to.
Thanks In Advance
