1) Which ONE of the following statements is WRONG?• Your client is a citizen of India who has indefinite leave to remain in the UK.
She is currently on holidays for 3 weeks in India visiting relatives. She will
have to obtain a visa before travelling back to the UK.
[A person with indefinite leave to remain in the UK (settled status) who
returns in two years does not normally require entry clearance, although they
will need leave to enter the UK under Immigration Rules, para 18].
2) Malcolm was born in 1973 in the UK. In 1998 he married Nadir, a visa
national. In 2000 their son, Rudolph was born outside the UK.
• Malcolm is a Brit Citizen otherwise than by descent. Rudolph is a british
citizen by descent.
Malcolm was born in the UK before 1983 and so is a British Citizen otherwise then
by descent. Rudolph is born outside the UK after 1982. As his father is a British
Citizen otherwise then by descent and was married to his mother, so he is a british
citizen by descent.
3) Aaron was born outside the UK in 1981 as a visa national. In 1993, he
entered the UK with his family for the purposes of settlement. He had
inde nite leave to remain in the UK when his girlfriend, Bella, gave birth to his
daughter, Carol, in 2009 in the UK. Bella had limited leave to remain in the UK
at that point in time. The couple remain in the UK in the same immigration
status and they have not married.
In which ONE OR MORE of the following circumstances is Carol a BRITISH
CITIZEN? You may choose one, more or all answers.
• If Aaron is named as Carol's father on her birth certi cate and that is
accepted as evidence of paternity by the Secretary of State.
• If the secretary of state accepts other evidence that Aaron is Carol's
father.
• If Aaron and Bella subsequently marry in the UK or any other country
where their marriage operates to legitimise Carol.
Carol is born after 1982 in the UK. To be a British citizen one of her parents had to
be at the time of her birth either a British citizen or settled in the UK. Her mother,
Bella with limited leave does not qualify. What about her father, Aaron? He was not
married to her mother. But as Carol was born after the Nationality, Immigration and
,Asylum Act 2002 came into force on 1 July 2006, section 50(9A) means that her
father is (a) the husband, at the time of the child!s birth, of the woman who gives
birth to the child (and remember that if the parents subsequently marry that may
operate to legitimise the child); (b) where a person is treated as the father of the
child under s 28 of the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Act 1990, that person;
or (c) where neither paragraph (a) nor (b) applies, any person who is proven to be
the father by the production of such evidence (eg a birth certificate, DNA test
report or court order) as may satisfy the Secretary of State on this point.
