Question about my son's rights as a dual citizen

[reneenetrop]

I don't know if I'm asking this in the right place, but I couldn't find anywhere that looked right so I'm gonna take a chance. Here's the situation... I am a Canadian, my partner (we are in a same sex marriage) is in the process of immigrating from England and is in the final stages. We have a son who was concieved through artificial insemination. I am listed on his birth certificate as his mother, and my partner is listed as his other parent. Here in Canada this gives her all the same rights as any other parent, just as a father would have for a child. My question is, can she have him registered back ion england when we travel? Is he entitled to dual citizenship as he would be if my partner was his father or if I was the one from the UK? I really need to find out who to ask about this stuff, because we want him to have the same rights as any child would if born of parents from different places. When we go there we want him to be an equal citizen...does anyone know, or know where I would find this out?

You should have no problems.

England allows same-sex marriage, gay adoption, and two mothers/fathers on the birth certificate for children born in England.

But you can always check with an england immigration forum, or check the british website for applying for uk citizenship.
