      I also forgot to say they will want registration of the birth of your parents who is a British citizen. Not everybody has that though. It's good to go through an attorney just so they can advise you about your packet that you send in. It should have a cover letter and passport photos as well.

    Hi! Can someone Please help me with a information.
    I'm outside of the uk. Applied for British passport few months ago for my first child. They emailed me in February that i can collect the passport. But when i gone to the vfx they told me that it didn't come yet. And we called to British passport office they told us to wait. But it's been 5 months plus but no news yet. Did it happened with anybody?? Does it takes this long to deliver passport?? I'm very worried.

      You and your brother are already automatically British Citizens by descent, you just need to apply for your British passport, you'll need your birth certificate and your father's original long form birth certificate.

    My mother was born in Bermuda (British Overseas Territory) in 1965. According to my research she should be able to apply for a passport but according to this video there’s just an additional step to apply as a citizen?
    If this is correct, would I be able to apply through descent as well with this process? Any insight is greatly appreciated! Thanks for the info 😁

    • @philipantonopoulos8303
      @philipantonopoulos8303 Рік тому

      Your mother can definately apply for a passport right away. But, I am not sure if she would be classed as a British citizen or a British Overseas Territory citizen. It all depends on the legislature at the time she was born and Bermuda's status at the time.

    • @dbvnyc
      @dbvnyc Рік тому

      Your mother will be eligible to apply for British Overseas Territories citizenship. In 2002 she automatically became a British citizen. So she can hold two passports. The main one is British citizenship. It allows her to live, work, etc, in the UK. If your mother was born outside of marriage, the law changed on 28 June 2022, removing this discrimination. It was retrospectively applied. The BOTC Campaign fought to change the law. Their website can be found on line using a Google search

    I was approved for my British Passport by Descent of my Father born in the UK. Mother born in USA. Currently, I am living in the USA. If I decide to move to England and apply for Employment, do I need another document besides my British Passport, like a British Social Security Card to apply for jobs or will employers accept a passport as work authorization? Will I be invited for a British Citizenship Ceremony or need to take a British Life Test. Thank you for your help.

      The law did change in 2019 for mainland UK-born fathers who did not marry their child's mothers. The law also changed on 28 June 2022, providing the same pathway to children born out of wedlock to British overseas territories fathers, and BOTC mothers with children born abroad. As Belize is a Commonwealth country and is independent, you need to check with a lawyer or directly with the Home Office UKVI to see what status your father will have given these circumstances above.

      It depends on the status of your parents. If they were registered as British citizens before 1983 there is a possibility that you might already be a British citizen. If your parents or grandparents didn't complete any formal process until now then you most probably can claim British citizenship.
