Hi everyone,
My parents (both German) lived in the UK from early 1988 until late 1993. My father worked here and I was born here in 1989. My parents told me that when I was little they received a letter asking if they wanted to claim UK citizenship for me. At the time they didn't, as Germany did not allow for dual citizenship – as far as I am aware, this has changed in 2007.
I came back to live, study, and work in the UK almost a decade ago – my life is here, so I am now wondering: Is it possible for me to make this claim now? Has anyone here gone through this process? From the documents I can find online, it looks like I just need to fill out a UK passport application and include my UK birth certificate, and evidence that my parents were living and working the UK at the time? Should I also write a cover letter explaining the reasoning of my claim or is this not needed?
Any help is much appreciated!
