Dear James

Are you still involved in the legal matter involving the loss of SA citizenship when one acquires a foreign citizenship?

I have a story to share with you what happened to me when I got British citizenship by descent through my mother when UK law changed in 2010. I considered it to be a late UK birth registration and not a formal UK citizenship application. British citizenship the consequence of the birth registration.

You can search on the UKM process on the web which explains that a right for UK women to pass citizenship to their children did not exist between 1948 and 1983 but was corrected in 2002 and 2010.

Please let me know.

Kind regards

Mike James
