Hi,
Here's my situation:
- Me: born in England, became a Canadian citizen In 2002
- Husband: born in Nigeria, became a Canadian citizen in 2015
- Undergoing gestational surrogacy, meaning the surrogate will have no genetic link to our baby.
- Will have legal documentation about surrogacy agreement
- Husband and I will be listed on birth certificate as parents. Not sure if it will say biological mother and father though
- We will get a DNA test done and have that documentation to show I'm biological mother and husband is biological father
- Baby will be born in Nigeria
Can someone confirm if our baby will be automatically granted Canadian citizenship? What documents will I need to apply for from Nigeria? How long can it take? Any options to expedite? I don't want to be stuck there with a newborn for months
I also want to be sure I'm not missing anything. Suggestions are welcomed
