Your husband has 居英權. So, does your husband live
and work in UK? If yes, I think it's an easy case as he
can apply it for you straight forward. My husband is a UK
citizen and lives in UK. I remembered when my husband
applied a visa for me through the UK embassy in HK. They needed to know my husband's career and knew whether he could financially support me in UK. Otherwise, if you
both still live in HK but plan to live in UK in the future. I
don't know whether you can show them all your assets
sold in HK and all those money from those assets can
support your application or not. If they approve your
case, they will give you a leave to remain visa for two
years. After two years, you need to apply again for an
indefinite remain visa and you have to pass the
"Life in the UK" English test as well. You may apply for your citizenship after your 3 years stay.
For the people who has 居英權. It seems like the first
generation can be UK citizen but the next generation can't have. BTW, I am not quite sure about this situation. I only know that if a family who got 居英權 but they don't live
and work in UK for three years. Most good colleges and
universities will count them as overseas students and pay oversea fee. For example, I got my marriage visa but
most universities and colleges count me as oversea
student and I needed to pay for oversea fee if I studied in a university in the past before I got my citizenship. Otherwise, I have to stay in UK for three years.
As I don't work in UK, so it seemed a trouble step for me
to go through those procedures for getting the citizenship.
I think the information of the above website is more
clear than what I said. From the website, your husband
should to be settled in the UK. You both should have
enough fund to support your whole family in the UK
before you get your citizenship as it will show on your visa that you can't get any public fund. That means you must be able to support yourself and live without claiming
certain benefits.
Actually, baby who is born in HK and one of his/her
parents is UK citizen can get UK passport too. I think you
may phone to the UK embassy to confirm whether
baby's dad got 居英權 can the baby gets british passport. If yes, you don't have to think about giving birth in the UK at this moment. You may plan it later. In my opinion, I
think getting UK citizenship is being harder and harder
from year to year. So, if you really plan to get your
citizenship. You should plan it as soon as possible. UK
government changes their rules and visa fees very fast.
For instance, spouses may need to stay more than three
years to get their citizenship one day.
My brother's family also has 居英權, but his children have
still not yet get married. His son also studied in the UK for
fifteen years but he works in HK now. Anyway, your case
maybe his future's case too.
BTW, are you expecting a mouse bb? If so, hope you
have a healthy baby.
