I am filling out the MN1 application for my 3 yer old who is born in the UK under section 1(3).
Do i have to fill section 3 of the application which is regarding the PARENTS RESIDENCE IN THE UNITED KINGDOM
OR BRITISH OVERSEAS TERRITORIES, WHERE APPLICABLE.
Thank you for your advice in anticipation.
The
MN1 guide tells you on page 24:
SECTION 3: PARENTS’ RESIDENCE IN THE UNITED KINGDOM OR THE BRITISH
OVERSEAS TERRITORIES, WHERE APPLICABLE.
If the application is in respect of a child born abroad to parents who are British citizens
by descent under section 3 (2) or 3 (5) you should complete this section. Otherwise go
straight to Section 4: Good Character
So if you are British by descent under section 3(2) or 3(5) then fill it in, otherwise leave blank. I wasn't British when I filled it for my daughter and I left it blank, she was granted Citizenship.
