I really haven’t done much on this goal yet.
Stop procrastinating and start mapping out the various hoops I have to jump through!

I’ve been meaning to do this for over 5 years (I know!) and I want to do it before they change the rules, again. I have to jump through so many more hoops now than I would have five years ago. Must start studying for the “Life in the UK” test.
My mother was a British citizen until I was 12yo and I was born in the US. I’ve been told that ONLY FATHERS can pass on British citizenship to their children born before 1985. I was born in 1952. Is this really true?? The explanation was that after 1985 births mothers can pass them on too but not before. Does anyone know about this? And since both my maternal grandparents were British, is that any help in my getting British citizenship? Thanks for any help.
My great grandmother came to the US from England over a hundred years ago. I am wondering if i can apply for citizenship as a descendant. I’m 15 and my mum (opposite side of the family from the great grandmother) and i would like to do this hopefully before i turn 18 so i can go to school there. currently i am a US citizen so there will not be problems with the whole dual citizenship thing because both countries are okay with dual citizenship. can anyone help?
My grandma came over at the age of 18, changed her name, and only went back once, when my dad was 2. No one ever seemed to question why. The way things are going in the US, I would like to have the safety net of a double passport behind me, as I find the Bush administration frightening to say the least, and I do love the hawthorn/hedgerow combo…
The passport is in the mail. The next time I enter the UK it will be in the EU Passports line! Hooray! At long last!
I was hoping to get this through before I turned 17, but something bounced back and so we need to fill out all new paperwork now. Took the chap at FedEx five tries to get it right. But now it’s almost all in and soon enough I’ll be tied to the motherland again. Free to roam the E.U. and work where I please. Joy!
I could even get South African citizenship through my mum, but that might be a bit much. Three countries to be loyal to is quite time consuming.
I made the summary of British citizenship law here :
British Citizenship By Descent, Birth, Marriage or Naturalization
It will give you a general idea about your eligibility for British citizenship.

vonderjohn asks,
“Can I apply for student visa and immigration visa at the same time? Or is it that I should apply for immigration visa in the beginning instead of a student one, then count 5 years?”
