CUKCs who did not have the Right of Abode in the UK on 1st January 1983 became British Overseas Citizens after 1983. Those who did have the Right of Abode on that date became British citizens.Section 2 of the Immigration Act 1971 as enacted wrote:Statement of right of abode, and related amendments as to citizenship by registration

(b)he is a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies born to or legally adopted by a parent who had that citizenship at the time of the birth or adoption, and the parent either—
(i)then had that citizenship by his birth, adoption, naturalisation or (except as mentioned below) registration in the United Kingdom or in any of the Islands; or
(ii)had been born to or legally adopted by a parent who at the time of that birth or adoption so had it; or
