2. I will be eligible for nationality next yesr and then the passport.

4. Some people say new requirements wud not apply sum say they do so m just waiting for the 9th July changes and see wat happens.
5. My question is that if my wife has to go bak home and gives birth to my child in pakistan, wud i be able to apply for the British passport for my child or not.

If you are not a British citizen on the date of birth of the child, the born-abroad-child will not be British and therefore not eligible for British passport.

Thnx very much for the reply and the advice. Now can you answer the following questions related to British National.

1. I know if my child born in the UK then the child will be a BC by birth.
2. Wat happens if my wife(during her pregnancy) comes here on a visitor visa and gave birth to my child in the UK. Wat happens in this situation?
3. In your reply to my first question lets just say my kid will be born in Aug 2013 in Pakistan and i wud have become a BC in April 2013. So according to your reply my child will be a BC right?

Thnx again........

If you know 1, then question in 2 is irrelevant.
The statement in my response above is self-explanatory.

Do note that NHS services are not free for visitors. So, giving birth in UK when on visitor visa is an expensive choice!

Why does you wife not come to UK on spouse visa. If she applies now in Pakistan, her application will be dealt with under current "easy" rules.
