Understanding UK Citizenship UKF: A Pathway to British Nationality

For the persons born before 01.07.2006 – to a British father and a foreign mother, the instrument filled in is one of the ways to become a citizen in Britain. Pre 1983 laws on UK nationality which denied citizenship to children born into a British father out of wedlock mean there were gaps. This is because through UKF one can get an opportunity to turn this and become a British national by descent. Any applicant who wishes to take part in the UK Citizenship UKF scheme must first demonstrate that they have the UKF pattern and some benchmarks. This usually entails proof that the father was a British citizen at the time of the applicant’s birth as well as proof of parentage. The application also attracts other costs or could require the siting of a citizenship ceremony.
