The UK has the same law already and I’ve already been bitten by it. My son cannot even apply for UK citizenship (I’m dual) — but if he were adopted or illegitimate, he could. Very sad.
Thank you for all your work on this. Your approach is very reasonable and I cannot see how they can not accept it. If they must prove 3 years residency for new immigrants, surely this same department can be used to prove 3 years residency for Canadian citizens who return home. Our tax system is based on residency so I would think the information on the individual’s (or the individual’s parents) tax return would be the first step in quickly determining residency.
The proposed amendment is an excellent and sensible approach. As the world becomes increasingly mobile, it’s not reasonable to expect us all to scurry home to give birth. Let us know what we can do to back you up on this.
