You and your wife will have to apply separately on separate forms and have to pay fees separately.zeee123 wrote:Hello Everyone,
I would like to ask you all talented ppl following questions if u can answer: Just to cover the background so far...
I currently have ILR after 5yrs on Tier 1 which is coming up to 12 months(5years Tier 1 + 1yr ILR) in March 2nd Week. I have wife and 2 kids(6yr&1yr), wife on ILR and been here over ten years same as myself and both kids where born here. But when kids were born our status was Tier 1 General and afterwards kids and wife got ILR for being my dependants.
1. Now when i am going to apply for Naturalisation in March 2014, do i have to apply under AN form and fill separate forms for all of us. Is there a family application form or just fill up 4 forms?
2. Can i not include my kids in the forms and can they apply to Register as a British Citizen on the basis that parents(Wife and MYSELF) have ILR considering they(KIDS) were born in this country or do they still have to pay £669 in their own right?
I am only concerned that by doing so it will same me a about £1300 in fees but if i have no choice then i would have to do it. Please comment.
thanks
This is not correct. They do not become British Citizens automatically, they have just become eligible to register for BC - these are very different things. They will have to apply for BC by using MN1 as mentioned in my reply above. If you apply for their passports directly then your passport application will be refused and you will lose the fees.milan69 wrote:Again, I am not expert on this but I believe if your kids were born in UK they are British citizens from the moment you have received your ILR, meaning you have to apply for their passport only.
