Post-Citizenship Services

Obtaining economic citizenship is just the beginning and as clients go through life, new developments such as the birth of a child, marriage, change of name etc. will trigger the need for additional CBI services. Claxton Whittaker & Associates will provide solutions for any post-CBI services required by its clientele.

• • Passport Renewals

– Passports for adults are valid for 10 years and passports for minors are valid for 5 years. CWA enables economic citizens to renew their passports without having to travel

• •  Citizenship by Descent Applications for newborn children

– In certain jurisdictions, children born to economic citizens are automatically eligible for citizenship. This applies to all economic citizens and not only the main applicant in the original citizenship application.

• •  Addition of Dependents

– Various circumstances may cause an individual to apply for citizenship as a single applicant. Fortunately, the CBI programmes allow for the addition of dependents after the approval and completion of a citizenship application.

• •  Name Change

– Economic citizens can change their name by marriage or through legal processes such as deed polls. CWA can facilitate both the name change process as well as the updating of the citizenship certificate and passport following the name change process.

• •  Police Certificates

– As economic citizens use their second citizenship to conduct transactions internationally, certain institutions would request police certificates as part of the compliance service. CWA can obtain police certificates on behalf of its clientele with or without apostille.
