Do you or a family member currently hold BN(O) status or curious to know whether there’s a chance? As of January 31, 2021, the Home Office have opened avenues to British citizenship for Hong Kong BN(O) nationals and visa solutions. Your children maybe British and you don’t even know it!
Relocating to a foreign country can be exciting and thrilling, but also daunting when you think of all the logistics for you and your family. New culture, new schools, new job, new neighbours and new home. Before you make the move, are you certain that everything has thoroughly been investigated and you weighed the possibility of applying for British citizenship?
On the 22 October 2020, The UK government published the Statement of Changes in Immigration Rules which set out the legal framework for the new immigration system. This will apply to both EU and non-EU citizens.
Was your mother born in the United Kingdom? If so, take a look at the statements below to find out whether you are eligible to claim British citizenship.
The British government currently has agreements with EU Member States, the European Economic Area and Switzerland to protect British citizens living or moving to those countries until the end of the transition period at midnight 31 December 2020. The Withdrawal Agreement is the basis for these rights and seeks to govern the relationship of the UK and EU until the end of 2020.
Following developments in Hong Kong, the Home Office announced that the government will bring in a scheme to grant persons with British National (Overseas) passports the right to get ‘leave to stay’ and settle in the UK.
I am very impressed by the service I received from Passportia. The application process was easy and quick. Within hours of contacting them I had an answer as to whether I could get British Citizenship. Passportia were very helpful and started work on the application straight away. My application for British Citizenship was processed within 6 months.
Passportia is efficient, thorough and good at what they do. We managed to get UK passports with their help, they guided us through the complex process. They are reliable and accountable.
Passportia was great! Angelika did exactly as she said she would. It took a while, but passportia and Angelika were behind us the whole time. Well worth it! I highly recommend them. Thank you!
I would highly recommend the services of Passportia. They handled my application with the utmost professionalism and advice throughout the processes. I can especially commend Jamal for his support and commitment to a successful outcome.
Amazing service from Passportia, specifically Jamal. His continuous feedback, advice and professionalism when applying for my daughter's UK citizenship and passport put my mind at ease throughout the entire application process and the final turnaround time was much quicker and less stressful than I could have imagined. I would most definitely recommend their services for anyone who needs assistance or advice regarding UK citizenship.
I recently learned about an opportunity to claim my British Citizenship. I chose Passportia to assist me with the process. I was delighted by the prompt, courteous service and professionalism. Mr. Jamal handled all of the details and secured my citizenship without any difficulties. I highly recommend Passportia to any who may be considering an application for UK citizenship.
Passportia did a first-class job in getting British citizenship for my 2 adopted children in Sri Lanka. Their excellent preparation and credibility with the Home Office made all the difference. I can't recommend them highly enough. Thank you Passportia.
