UK Child Benefits

[joebloggs]

Joe,
Why would she not be able to get a British passport? I swore an affidavit of paternity in The Phils and her passport and birth cert is in my name. I vaguely recall some UK law about children born before July 2003 (which she was) that may prevent her from having British passport but to be honest I'm not sure.
Would appreciate your wisdom
Alfie

2. I have decided not to apply for a British passport for my daughter because I am British By Descent

are you "British By Descent" ? you were born outside the uk ?
