Re: Timeline and passport return

The standard processing time is 12 weeks so she should go on her trip and apply when she gets back. Just be mindful of the 28 day rule and make sure your financial requirements details/documents are...

Re: Eligibility for British Citizenship - query

You definitely have a Section 4L registration claim but I’m wondering whether the Rhodesian connection means you may have an automatic claim. I’ll need to do some research.

Re: Any Advantage in ARD vs UKM if only child is 18+?

Okay, good to know. I didn't want to have sent you down the wrong path!



One more reason to go with Form UKM as Form ARD is only a paper form for the time being.

Re: 2025 Applying for British Citizenship

When we were discussing that case, Section 4L was not yet on the statute books. Now that it is, it's the most appropriate option for you. See Example 12...

Re: s.4L registration question - HMPO omission

If she went to school in the UK then I presume she spent more than three consecutive years there before you were born? If so, then Section 3(2) registration would have been an option for both you and...

Re: s.4L registration question - HMPO omission

How old were you and your sister in 2014? Why do you think you were eligible to have been registered under Section 3(1)?

Re: 4L and s12(6) BNA 1948 / s11(3)(b) BNA 1981

Okay, it's not the male line as it was the great-grandmother who was born in the UK. It's certainly a novel approach but the basic logic seems sound. If you're successful then it would potentially...

Re: Naturalisation Referee

It's very much a hangover from the days you used to submit a ring binder full of paperwork to Lunar House and wait around all day for a decision. Your referee just needs to complete the form but you...

Re: 2025 Applying for British Citizenship

A Section 4C application via Form UKM is not correct. That would apply if your mother had been born in the UK rather than your grandfather.

Re: 2025 Applying for British Citizenship

That's actually a pretty simple Section 4L registration scenario! :lol:

If Tigs68 has any children then, depending on when they were born, they too may be eligible to be registered.

Re: 2025 Applying for British Citizenship

You are both correct in saying that the OP's mother is British by descent but until 1983 children born in foreign countries to fathers who were CUKC by descent could still become CUKCs under Section...

Re: 2025 Applying for British Citizenship

- Your referees will need to sign the declarations on your application form.
- If you live in South Africa then your referees can be South African citizens rather...

Re: 4L and s12(6) BNA 1948 / s11(3)(b) BNA 1981

If it's further back than the grandparent then you will likely struggle to make a case. Could lay out your current thinking?

Looking back over your post history, would I be correct in saying you have no UK-born ancestors?

Re: How long can I stay away from the Uk

You can stay away for up to two years without your ILR expiring however being away for a year is likely to delay your eligibility to naturalise. Personally I would naturalise now and then you never...
