Children born outside of UK to a parent who recently obtained Citizenship by Naturalisation

Post by Kirit2k » Fri Jan 04, 2019 3:22 pm

Hello,

I recently obtained British Citizenship through naturalisation Section 6(1) in 2017.

I would like to know if I am elegible to pass on citizenship to my children who are under 18 and were not born in UK and do not live in UK at the moment.

There are several hundred topics in relation to citizenship for children born outside the UK however I can't seem to find anything that is relevant to my situation as I obtained Citizenship after my children were born.

Any feedback will be highly appreciated

No, it is not retrospective and they don't have a claim to British citizenship if born before you became British.
