marriage certificate state British national but plan to apply for HK dependant visa

Yes, before 1st July 1997. Also had to submit lots of supporting docs such as parents HKID card copies with ***, their marriage certificate, etc.

My wife got her *** like you before 1st July 1997 but because she left HK for more than 3 years and now she lost her *** and have Right To Land status.

Does her ID card say ***AO? I'm thinking if the AO stands for Alien Overseas which offers permanent residency but restricted to re-entry every 3 years.

Anyone know?

she was probably born overseas. To retain your full *** ROA when you stay away for > 3 years, you have to have been born here.

A means Right of Abode; O means born overseas. *** means eligible for a HK Reentry Permit.

I don't remember what it say on her old ID card and she was born oversea. If she stay in HK for another 7 years will she get her *** back. I don't think she will. Anyone know?
