Hi,
My husband and I have lived in the US for 5.5 years and became naturalized citizens last week. We have a son who was born here and holds both passports. There is a possibility that we may have to live in the UK again for a few years (because of husbands job/company), although this is still not final. My question is, if we were to have another child in the UK can we pass on the US citizenship? I know if we were American born we could, but given that we also hold UK passports I am not sure where that would leave us.
Appreciate any help,
Aly
