Changing Country of Birth..

One of my friend (who is British Citizen Now) asked me if it is possible to change the country of birth in the passport?
She claimed asylum as Romanian national however she actually was born in Ukraine.
Is it possible?
what are the implications?

thanks

you need to send your proof of living her in UK.
you can send you council tax bills or bank statments or any other household bill, if your name was in it.

They just want to see if you were living at the same address.

I hope it make sense to you.

Only if you can convince the Passport Office that the child is British. But the Home Office knows much more about nationality law than the Passport Office does.

It then creates a permanent record and avoids hassle renewing passport later on (if the passport office lose their records).

Bascially you have already answered the question yourself.For the passport office to issue the child with a british passport, proof needs to be provided that the mother exercised treaty rights for 5 years and hence automatically attained PR before the child was born. But no such proof was provided ...
