British citizenship application question

Post by Shanshanx2 » Sat Mar 15, 2025 3:58 pm

Hi, I also have a question regarding British citizenship for a child.

My son is 14, born in the UK and has never left the country or held a passport. I did not have ILR at the time of his birth so I have to register him as a British citizen first. I am currently completing the Form T application and it has asked for his country of nationality, but I am unsure how to proceed because he was born in the UK and has no other nationality. I would appreciate any help possible.

His father is a British citizen but I did not put him on my child’s birth certificate nor is he in his life.

Then your child has likely received nationality from Trinidad from you. Declare that as current child's nationality.
