Do you qualify for British citizenship following the British Borders and Nationality Act amendments?
Marriage to a British National before 1983
Historically, only women married to British men were allowed to register themselves as British nationals. As such, the law discriminated against women. To correct this historical injustice, the new changes allow men married to British women before 01 January 1983 to register as British citizens.

Historically, British nationality could only be passed through the male line. Over the years, however, changes have been made to British nationality to correct this discrimination, but these changes were limited. Under the new changes, applicants may be able to register as British nationals if they meet certain requirements.
