#1 Child born in the UK doesn’t automatically become a British citizen.  Since 1983 at least one parent has to be British at the time of birth, in this case Prince Harry. Can also work if one parent has a permanent residency immigration status. If both parents are migrants and don’t have a permanent residency document, their child won’t be entitled to a British passport at birth. #2 Child born outside the UK becomes British by descent, so your ‘grandchild’ may not be British.  Let’s imagine Meghan and Harry are enjoying Australia and Fiji so much, they decided to stay there until their baby is born. Will the child be British if born abroad? Yes, because Prince Harry is British. But the child will be what the law calls ‘British by descent’. It means Meghan and Harry’s grandchildren will only be British if they are born in the UK. If their grandchildren (from this child) are born outside the UK, they won’t be British and, well, we may have a Royal baby who isn’t a B...

A recent Daily Mail article here https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6196899/Couple-face-torn-apart-chef-facing-deportation-technicality.html told how a South African husband was refused Spouse visa extension (after initial 2.5 years). The reason was quite common: English language requirement which has to be at a higher A2 level. The South African gentleman had no idea the rules were changed in 2017. So, if your visa has been refused, what’s next? #1 Don’t panic, you won’t be “deported”. A term ‘deportation' is overused by the media completely out of context. Deportation is a legal term for a process used to remove foreign criminals. It is not used to split the law-abiding hard-working families because of a technical mistake in the visa application. #2 Don’t be scared of the letter telling you to leave the UK.   It is a standard letter that comes with all refusals that sounds scary “You now must make arrangements to leave the country”.It is computer-generated.
