Hi,
I am hoping to move to Hong Kong within the next year but have a couple of questions regarding ROA. I understand that if my parents were HK residents at the time of my birth, then I do. Does the law specific between HK resident and Chinese resident?
Here is my scenario:
Dad born in China, mom born in Hong Kong. Dad was petitioned to go to Canada from his grandfather. One year later, he goes to US on student VISA and couple years after that US citizen. He holds (to the best of his knowledge) no legal documents other than his US passport. My mother immigrated here and obtained her US citizenship soon after. All this was done before I was born. If my mom is currently applying for her SmartID card and the papers will be finalized in 2 months.
Question:
Can I obtain a ROA using my mom's smartID card and any additional documentation she may have? or does the law specify I need documents from both parents?
Thanks in advance for answers and suggetions.
