I just remebered it was something to do with the citizenship and the term LEGAL parent/s. A child that has been adopted's legal parent/s are now the the parents they work with. the name change you speak of are for those that where born with another name (some countries do not issue new adopted birth name certificates with the adoptive name on it) and the adoptive parents are British nationals then the claim is thru the legal parents. As i said this case was a good few years ago but good luck with the application and let us know the outcome.tips wrote: ↑Fri Jul 20, 2018 3:27 pmExpertcitizen is indeed correct. This case was a while, it was a British woman who had a child out of wedlock with an Indian national and then the child was adopted by an Indian family. The child found out that he had a British birth mother and applied for citizenship based on her nationality. It was refused on the grounds that the mother had given up all claims (including citizenship) on the child at the point of adoption. The case rambled on about parents not understanding the ramifications of adoption etc etc but they did give him the ability to claim an ancestral visa based on his grandparents!! It was a bit of a dogs breakfast of a decision and maybe it has since been repealed but it was a strange scenario.
