If the child is born in the UK after your received your ILR then you can apply for the British passport straight away. If the child is born in the UK before your received your ILR then apply for naturalisation for the child using MN1 under section 1(3). In this case no need to wait until you get nat...
Thanks for the reply vinny! I 'm getting more confused. :?: Can some one please say eligible or not? Thanks When you apply for naturalization for your wife along with your application then it looks like she was away for more than 450 days in the last 5 years. As this is the case you both cannot app...
oh sorry my bad. I thought it could be used for citizenship application. It is somehow misleading that they put "Apply online system is now available" under "Latest News: Citizenship" It is in the news because the system was down for a day two days ago. It was also in their news...
If your second kid is born after you received the ILR then no need to naturalise that kid as a BC as he is already a BC. Just apply for British passport. But for your daughter who was born before you received your ILR need naturalization as BC. Use MN1 form for that.
I plan to apply for wife's naturalisation just after my citizenship ceremony, i.e before getting my British Passport - (on the basis of 3yrs stay as a spouse of British citizen...) supporting document for Section 6. (On page 15 of the application) says, Husband's passport or birth certificate AND M...

There is no legal requirement to take the nationality. No one knows what is going to be the new rules until they release them. As per current provision if you pay money ILR stamp can be transferred to new passport. If you wish to carry the old passport with your current ILR after getting new passpor...
Also cheque is not equivalent to money until it is cleared. Only demand draft is equivalent to money. One can send a cheque and inform the bank not to authorise it. So no way cheque is equivalent to money for the amount we are talking here.
Why not save costs and wait until April to make a joint application with your wife? Just worried about the rules change. When we first came to the UK in early 2005, there was 4+1 years rule for BC without any Life in the UK test. Then it became 5+1 years for BC. Later Life in the UK test has also b...
Either you apply by post or NCS, it is always better to include a self-addressed next day special delivery envelope to receive all your documents including the passport(s) and the approval letter. If you have not enclosed then they will post it by ordinary post which may take sometime. You will rec...
I like to go for separate timings for myself + 2 kids and then for my wife once I am successful in getting the BC. As the rules may change in April I do not wish to wait until April for applying together for all of us. Question 1: For me + 2 kids I am planning to apply on 11 Feb (Friday) by special ...

Once you receive your British passport, you must surrender your Indian passport and get OCI (now PIO is no longer available). For more details about how to surrender Indian passport and get OCI, check Indian consulate website of the region where you live in the UK.
Singapore does not allow dual citizenship. If I were you and if I prefer UK passport for the baby I will straight away register the child as a British and get a British passport and forget about Singaporean citizenship.
Thanks gidoc and nax. Yes, I have been to NCS this morning using most of new form except for two referees signature on the old form, since there is no difference on the two pages. good to know that your MIXED application form got accepted by the NCS. All the best for the success of your application.
Check particularly the referee form page. If there is no much difference then you can try to use that page. It would be better to get other pages done again from the new form.
I didn't use the NCS service and I have enclosed a special next day delivery envelope with the application form :wink: So you mean to say that you enclosed self-addressed special delivery envelope along with the application for the UKBA to send back the approval letter, passports and other original...

We are four in the family. Myself, my wife and two kids. We all received the ILR on 12th February 2010. Even though both our kids are born here in the UK we did not apply for their naturalization just after receiving their ILRs as we wish to go for single time application for all four of us. We are ...
