Apply ROA certificate from abroad

Hi, We've applied to register our kid (MN1) for British citizenship. We are planning to visit China once she will receive her result from the Home office. She has never visited her grandparents since her birth due to covid. 1. Will she meet any difficulties at the border when we come back as she wil...

Re: Referee for child's citizenship application

If a potential referee refused in writing, then attach a copy. Else, if verbal, then I guess just declare it? I think they may just ask you to find other referees if your chosen ones are not acceptable. Thank you. We have submitted the application. The website asks us to download a 3-page family co...

Referee for child's citizenship application

Hi, We are preparing documents for registering our daughter as a British citizen. As to our understanding, she needs two referees, and the first needs to be her teacher or doctor/health visitor. However, she doesn't go to any nursery and thus has no teacher. The doctor refused as they don't want to ...

Re: Child applying for Right of Abode

You have to apply to register her as British first on form MN1 once either parent is granted ILR. Hi, we are considering visiting China in the coming months - we haven't visited since the birth of the child due to covid. Will my daughter be allowed to go abroad after she obtains UK citizenship? If ...

Re: Child applying for Right of Abode

You will have to be on ILR on the date when you apply for your daughter's registration. This is the date you "submit/pay" the MN1 application. The biometrics appointment date is not relevant, though I appreciate these are not always easy to book (as many applicants experience). Hi, we are...

Re: Child applying for Right of Abode

You have to apply to register her as British first on form MN1 once either parent is granted ILR. Do you think it is allowed that we apply for her citizenship online now, but book UKVCAS on a day after we will receive our new BRP (we paid for priority service for the ILR application)? It's so hard ...

Thank you. As we currently have an application for the ILR, is she allowed to register while we are waiting for the ILR decision?

Hi, My daughter was born in 2019 when I was on a Tier 2 work visa. I have now applied for an ILR and will expect to get it soon. We are planning to apply for a certificate of ROA for her, instead of a British passport. I am confused about the process. What should we do? Should we register her as a c...
