Special case: Those born to Jamaican parents.

Does such a person have to apply for JA citizenship...or it is automatically conferred at birth?

What if dem born a Merika?

The document which proves your citizenship by birth is your birth certificate.

You require several documents to prove citizenship through your parents.

There is naturalization process.. I suspect you receive a certificate which has no expiration (unlike a passport)

Yup, always the possibility that the UB40 would feel pressured not to offend the English fans. I remember the white fellow who played for Trinidad in Germany stating the England is 'his team' and he will not celebrate if he scored or id Trinidad won.
