    yes, so i think you're daughter is British by descent.

    but i think you need to send your husband's birth cert or passport.


    you should phone up 0300 222 0000 and check.

    well if thats what the guy at the P/O told you, but i would have thought they want to see evidence your husband is a British citizen.

    maybe the guy at the P/O has made a mistake, thou he could be right

    i'm sure when i phoned up the IPS (identity and passport service) they said i would have to send my birth cert or passport. might have been even both, it was a while a go, and i can't remember

    I know what u mean joe coz i phoned them too before MAY this year and they said my hubby's BC or passport and marriage cert. maybe if i go to P/O again then its a different person they might ask a different doucments so I'll just bring everything on the IPS list to be sure and hopefully it will be next week.

    Your husbands birth certificate is usually enough to prove his nationality, after all the BC was the basis upon which his passport was issued. However, just go with the flow, and include the passport..
