British Citizenship to a Child born in UK to EEA mother

[EUsmileWEallsmile]

Great, thanks ! is that somewhere in writing ? so that if they refuse us the PP or anything, we can argue on that basis

It's in the directive 2004/38 and the 2006 immigration regs.

i had same situation when i applied for my son's British passport coz my spouse is EU national.
I applied direct to IPS, with all evidence of being student and worker in past five years from the birth of child.
and also had claimed JSA. a letter from HMRC confirming JSA dates was enough for IPS.
What they told me on phone, due to claiming JSA , ur son cant get British passport but they were wrong and i received British passport in 5 days.

Do not have CSS, EEA1, EEA3.
Good Luck to all.

yes you are right, actually she is eligible for a British PP as well as her mother is british and she was born before the law changed ( 1982) so she can apply for a British PP for herself, which we should have done before

Well if the mother is British (not having a passport doesn't mean you don't hold a nationality. It just means she did not apply for a passport), then you are approaching the issue from the wrong angle.

Prove the mother is British and the UK born child is British from birth. No matter what the mother did in the UK.
