How long ago was this?
2018 when I stopped getting involved, still get updates from friends in the biz.
Nationality law can be quite nuanced, but I was fully trained in it. HM passport office were a pain for us to work with more often than not, so not surprised it was a nightmare for them. How straightforward was your relative’s case?
while if may be technically true that's not always the reality anymore.
It’s very much true and, unless someone is not doing their job properly, it’s the legal reality. Edit- apologies if this bit came out harsh, had a bit of a flashback to 2014/15 when HMPO fucked everyone over with their 700,000 application backlog...

Unfortunately, while if may be technically true that's not always the reality anymore.
A relative whose daughter was born in France had a nightmare obtaining a passport. Ultimately it was resolved by lots of threats of legal action and going to the papers.
