No. The child is only automatically British if born in the UK to parents who hold ilr and can apply directly for a British passport. The child does NOT require ILR.If we stay on ILR and not apply for Citizenship can the child born in India in July apply for British citizenship directly from there?
The child will automatically be British by Descent and can apply directly for a passport, no need to specifically apply for citizenship. Note that child cannot pass on British citizenship to his/her own children if born outside the UK.shubhendra wrote: ↑Mon Feb 10, 2020 1:43 pmIf one of the parents applies for British Citizenship in June and get it before the child is born can the Child get British cizenship directly even though if it is born abroad?
If the child is born abroad on or after the date of the citizenship ceremony (and the date on the naturalisation certificate) of either parent, then the child will be born a British citizen by descent.shubhendra wrote: ↑Mon Feb 10, 2020 1:43 pmIf one of the parents applies for British Citizenship in June and get it before the child is born can the Child get British cizenship directly even though if it is born abroad?
If you only apply for citizenship in June, presumably for yourself only as your wife will be abroad for the birth in July, it is highly unlikely you will be British already by the time the child is born.shubhendra wrote: ↑Mon Feb 10, 2020 1:43 pmIf one of the parents applies for British Citizenship in June and get it before the child is born can the Child get British cizenship directly even though if it is born abroad?
