Gold Heart Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 If I apply to make my 2 daughters British Citizens, Will they lose their Filipno Citizenship ?.Regards Brock.I heard some where on this forum that Filipinos are allowed to have dual citizenship's. But don,t quote me on thatWas your wife a British citizen when they were born? In the case of my son, my wife was not yet a US citizen. She was a permanent resident for many years going through the process. Since my son was born while she was still a Filipino citizen, He was entitled to full citizenship of both countries and carries passports of both countries. My wife is now a dual citizen. We did file is birth with the Filipino embassy shortly after he was born. I think at the age of 18, he will have to declare or take the oath for dual citizenship.
