Hello, all,
I am in need of your help, please! I am a British Overseas Territory Citizen ( BOTC ) , I want to register as a British Citizen, but I do not know what to do.
I am registering under the alternative provision :
https://www.gov.uk/register-british-cit ... -nationals
Registration under the alternative provisions for British overseas territories citizens
If you are a British overseas territories citizen and did not become a British citizen under the British Overseas Territories Act 2002, you will be eligible for registration as a British citizen unless:
your British overseas territories citizenship is by connection only with the Sovereign Base Areas of Akrotiri and Dhekelia; or
you have previously given up British citizenship by a declaration of renunciation.
I do not know which form to use, I have no other nationality, as my country of origin does not allow dual nationality, but I still hold a passport from that country, from before I was registered in the Turks and Caicos Islands as a BOTC in 2012.
Will I have to meet the 5 year requirement, It does not state so, but I see it in the form? Please, help me out, I really need your support.
I have seen both forms, but I do not know how to complete them, because, there are sections that do not apply to me, and I do not know which form to use, I am completely lost.
Can someone explain to me, if I'll need to sit the life in Uk test, since, I'm registering? Besides my BOTC passport, and my registration card as a BOTC, I do not know what other documents I should send, please help, It is very urgent! If someone can advise me on how to complete the right form, I would be forever grateful for that kindness! Thank You!
Please, any advice on how to move forward is welcomed! Thank you so much for your help, I really need it!
Sorry for the long story, I just am in need to get this done correctly!
