I have been reading the boards with interest particularly as posts pertain to the new rules. However, it has made me wonder about my daughter's status! She was born in 1974 in a Commonwealth country (which became independent but remained in the Commonwealth) to me, a UK citizen and her father, a commonwealth citizen. In 1976 an official in the British High Commission told me that, as her mother, I could pass on British citizenship to her by a patriality stamp, which I did and she obtained a British passport. She has lived in the UK since 1990 and in 2000 married a British citizen. Just reading this board, I wonder if she is in fact a British citizen or one of the other categories, all of which I find very confusing. Could someone clarify this for me please?
