What are the documents for the citizenship of the child and where to submit them

Many parents, at the birth of the baby, rarely think about the fact that in order to recognize him a full-fledged citizen of the country, it is necessary to arrange properly to his citizenship.

Most often, such development occurs if both parents have Russian citizenship.

At the occurrence of special circumstances, parents are thinking about as in what order, they can be issued documents for citizenship.

Birthday Citizenship

In legal practice allocate two procedures for the civility of the Russian Federation - confirmation and receipt.

The first option means that the child who only appeared on the light acquires the citizenship of the Russian Federation automatically.

We are talking about the following situations:

• Mom and dad child have citizenship of Russia.
• One of the parents of a citizen of the Russian Federation, the second - does not have the status of a citizen in any of the countries or its location is not determined.
• The child's citizenship is indisputable, if at least one of the parents can confirm affiliation to Russian citizenship.
• Parents have foreign citizenship, but the child was born in Russia and the country of origin of his parents refuses to issue him citizenship.

In other cases, it is necessary to obtain citizenship, it is usually required to foreigners or those who do not have it at all.

Design can be done as needed, since no specific time limits are provided for this. The only thing that will be needed to comply with is to go through the procedure before receiving the internal and on the need for an overseas passport of the child.

The mark of citizenship will also be needed in the event that the child information needs to be added to the passport of parents or when applying for the issuance of maternal capital.

Features of registration

Until 2007, when making citizenship of children, a special liner was issued, then a simple stamp came to his replacement, which is raised in the birth certificate.

It is possible to use inserts now, it is not necessary to undergo a re-procedure, but parents whose children do not have a stamp, nor the liner confirming the civil affiliation, will need to go through the required procedure on its design.

The procedure for obtaining citizenship to a child includes several stages:

• Obtaining a certificate of the new baby, issued in the maternity hospital.
• Based on the paper issued, it is necessary to contact the registry office, which should prepare a child's birth certificate.
• When contacting the registry office, it is necessary to have a document in addition to the reference document, indicating the registration of parents and their passports (one) is allowed.
• Having received a certificate, it is necessary to transfer it to the department of migration service at the place of registration.

It is important

Registration will not take more than 10 days, the parents will receive back the birth certificate, on the other side of which will stand a stamp of citizenship.

A little more difficult to develop the situation in the following cases:

• Parents are in the official divorce, and one of them refuses to provide documents required from it or does not want to appear if necessary to state the state for the procedure. In this case, the interested party must provide a statement, indicating that it is unknown the location of the second parent. The entire design process will be held with the participation of only father or mother.
• One of the parents has citizenship of Russia, and the second is belonging to a foreign state. The question of the citizenship of the child will be solved by the mutual agreement of both parents. Such consent is necessarily expressed in writing and is assigned in the notary.
• The child was born outside the Russian Federation. As an additional document, a certificate of refusal to assign citizenship of the country in which he was born.
• Submit additional documents will be required in the event that parents or one of them do not have citizenship. A certificate is attached to the general packet package, indicating the actual absence of citizenship and a document confirming the residence permit.

If the child's parents location are not known or they will be recognized as missing, he will be able to receive citizenship automatically six months after birth.

When establishing a child of custody, the entire procedure for issuing citizenship takes responsible person, the main thing is that the guardian himself had Russian citizenship.

List of securities that need to be provided for citizenship:

• certificate of birth, parental passports and their copies, statement on the prescribed form. You do not need to pay for state duty.
• The child was born until the beginning of July 2002: a statement, confirmation of parental registration in the Russian Federation for February 6, 1992, passports of parents, certificate confirming the birth of a child.

Changes in citizenship of children involves the following age categories:

• Up to 14 years, citizenship affiliation may vary along with the change in citizenship of his parents.
• After 14 years and before the onset of majority - their consent is required.
• Upon reaching 18 years old - children independently make a choice.

Attention

If both parents or only one of them, on the contrary, come out of Russian citizenship, then the child has the opportunity to continue to remain in it. The output will occur if the statement of parents or one of them is received, with the consent of the second.

The main thing is that the child, losing belonging to Russian citizenship, was able to immediately get another. The last option, most likely, will not allow the state and simply will give a refusal to enter the child from citizenship.

Thus, the procedure for issuing citizenship of the Russian Federation for a child has certain nuances that are associated with the birth time of the child and the civil status of his parents.
