เสียใจด้วยสำหรับเรื่องพ่อของหนู

ตอนแรกว่าจะไม่เข้ามาตอบแล้ว  แต่อยากบอกให้หนูรู้ว่าอย่างไรก็ตาม ถ้าหนูอยากจะได้เป็น British citizen  หนูก็อาจจะต้องติดต่อญาติของพ่อหนู ที่ UK  เพราะหนูต้องใช้เอกสารจากทางพ่อของหนูมากพอสมควร

ไม่รู้ว่าตัวแม่ของหนูและตัวหนูเองเข้าใจภาษาอังกฤษมากเท่าไหร่ ถ้ามีความรู้ทางภาษาอังกฤษพอสมควร อาจจะสามารถยื่นดำเนินเรื่องได้ด้วยตนเองโดยไม่ต้องพึ่งพาใคร
หนูอาจจะต้องจ้างทนายความที่มีความรู้ด้าน UK citizenship and immigration ช่วยเดินเรื่องให้หนูด้วย ถ้าเป็นเช่นนั้นจะเสียค่าใช้จ่ายมากพอสมควร และถ้าไม่ถูกโกง อาจจะมีผู้ชำนาญการทางด้านนี้ ที่เป็นคนอังกฤษที่เมืองไทย  

OISC and Immigration Advice
You may, if you wish, use the services of an agent such as a solicitor or other competent adviser to help you with your application.
Immigration or nationality advisers acting in the course of business (whether paid or unpaid) are regulated by the Office of the Immigration Services Commissioner (OISC), an independent body. The provision of such advice is prohibited unless a person works for an organisation registered with, or exempted by, the OISC or is authorised to practise (like solicitors and barristers) by a designated professional body. Certain categories (for example public health bodies) are exempted from the regulatory scheme by Ministerial Order. It is a criminal offence to provide advice or services in contravention of the regulatory scheme. Further information about the regulatory scheme and a full list of OISC regulated advisers is available on its website at www.oisc.gov.uk.

Other ways you can be eligible
You may be eligible to apply for citizenship if:
- you have a British parent

You were born between 1983 and June 2006

If your British father was not married to your mother
You may be eligible to apply for citizenship if your father was a British citizen when you were born.

He must also have been one of the following:

born or adopted in the UK
given citizenship after applying for it in his own right (not based on having a British parent)
working as a Crown servant when you were born (for example in the diplomatic service, overseas civil service or armed forces)

Fees
You must pay:

£80 to attend a citizenship ceremony
£19.20 to have your biometric information (fingerprints and a photo) taken
How to apply
Read the guidance to check you can apply.

It may take longer than the usual 6 months to get a decision because of coronavirus (COVID-19). You’ll get extra time to provide your fingerprints, photo and additional information, and to book a citizenship ceremony. This will not affect the decision.

Fill in the form online.

You’ll be asked to make an appointment at a UK Visa and Citizenship Application Services (UKVCAS) service point to provide your biometric information (your fingerprints and a photo).

You do not need to send your documents anywhere. You can either:

upload copies into the online service
have them scanned at your UKVCAS appointment
You can also apply by post. This will take much longer than applying online because of coronavirus. Avoid applying by post, especially if you need your documents back by a specific date.

เพราะว่า  หนูเกิดก่อนปี 2006 และแม่ของหนูไม่ได้แต่งงานกับพ่อของหนูตอนที่หนูเกิด หนูจึงไม่ได้เป็น British citizen automatically
ถ้าหนูอยากจะเป็นจะต้องไปลงทะเบียนเพื่อเป็นประชากรเท่านั้น ก่อนที่อายุจะเกิน 18 ปี ถ้าหากมีสิทธิ์ตามกฎหมาย

ถ้าพ่อของหนูมีชื่ออยู่ในสูติบัตรแล้วภายใน 1 ปี หลังจากที่หนูเกิด ไม่จำเป็นต้องมีการ ตรวจ DNA
แต่เพราะว่า หลังจากที่หนูเกิดมาแล้ว พ่อของหนูเสียชีวิต ไม่ได้ทำเรื่องอะไรให้เลย ก็เลยไม่สามารถให้คำตอบแน่นอนได้ว่าอะไรเป็นอะไรจะต้องติดต่อไปที่หน่วยงาน เกี่ยวกับสัญชาติ เพื่อขอยืนยันว่าหนูจะมีสิทธิ์ได้ลงทะเบียนหรืออย่างไรหรือไม่  เรื่องสัญชาติเป็นเรื่องที่ละเอียดอ่อนมาก จะต้องติดต่อกับผู้ที่รู้กฎหมายที่แท้จริง

Registration as British citizen: children

Children born outside the UK
For children born outside the UK, you must first consider whether the person has an entitlement under section 3(5) of the British Nationality Act 1981, which gives British citizenship otherwise than by descent. You must then consider whether there is an
entitlement under section 3(2). If no entitlement exists, you must consider the application under section 3(1).
The law in relation to section 3(5)
Legitimated children are entitled to registration as a British citizen under section 3(5) of the British Nationality Act 1981 if:
• they were born outside the UK
• at the time of the birth they had a parent who was a British citizen by descent
• they are under the age of 18 when the application is made
• the child and both of their parents were in the UK at the beginning of the 3 year period ending with the date of the application
• the child and both of their parents have not been absent from the UK for more than 270 days in that 3 year period
• the consent of both parents is given to the application
• children aged 10 or over on the date of application are of good character
There is no discretion to accept a longer period of absence than 270 days in the 3 years before the date of the application.
If the child was born before 1 July 2006, and the parents were not married, all references to a parent are references to the mother only, unless the child’s birth was legitimated by the parents subsequent marriage.

Section 3(5) of the British Nationality Act 1981
(5) A person born outside the United Kingdom [F6and the qualifying territories] shall be entitled, on an application for his registration as a British citizen made while he is a minor, to be registered as such a citizen if the following requirements are satisfied, namely—

(b) subject to subsection (6), that that person and his father and mother were in the United Kingdom [F7or a qualifying territory] at the beginning of the period of three years ending with the date of the application and that, in the case of each of them, the number of days on which the person in question was absent from the United Kingdom [F8and the qualifying territories] in that period does not exceed 270; and
(c) subject to subsection (6), that the consent of his father and mother to the registration has been signified in the prescribed manner.

(6) In the case of an application under subsection (5) for the registration of a person as a British citizen—
(a) if his father or mother died, or their marriage [F9or civil partnership] was terminated, on or before the date of the application, or his father and mother were legally separated on that date, the references to his father and mother in paragraph (b) of that subsection shall be read either as references to his father or as references to his mother; [F10 and]
(b) if his father or mother died on or before that date, the reference to his father and mother in paragraph (c) of that subsection shall be read as a reference to either of them; F11...

If you wish to confirm your nationality status for work, immigration or travel purposes, you must apply to Her Majesty’s Passport Office for a British passport.
