British Citizenship for my daughter in South Africa
Posted: Tue Mar 06, 2012 1:23 pm
Good afternoon
I am looking for some advice if possible.
I was born in South Africa in 1979 to a mother and father who were born in the UK and then emmigrated to South Africa in 1973.
I have a British Passport but by descent from my father. My daughter was born in South Africa in 1998 to a mother who is South African and has no ties to the UK and we did not get married and have no intention of marrying each other. I did not live in the UK at any time before my daughter was born but I now live in the UK for the last 10 years with my new wife and son who is british. My daughters mother is still in South Africa with my daughter and has no intention of living in the UK.
My question is can my daughter obtain british citizenship with the MN1 form?
