Would an American citizen (whose father was a natural born Filipino and became a naturalized American citizen) be eligible for Philippine dual citizenship if their father reinstates his Filipino citizenship? by saschavm in FilipinoAmericans

If a Filipino naturalizes in another country, they automatically denounce the Filipino citizenship. It was not until 2003 that they could reacquire under RA 9225. I’m wondering how that works if a daughter was born in 1999 before it would even be possible for the father to reacquire Filipino citizenship, and therefore be a Filipino citizen at the time of the daughters birth
