Now, I am planning to apply British registration for my 2 yrs 6months uk born son using MN1 form under section 1 (3)
Looking into the guide and form, there's a residence requirement.
Is this section applicable for my son as he's born in UK and applying under section 1 (3)?
If yes, Also, there's absence details need to be provided.
My son is away for continuous 393 days outside uk, will this be a problem if apply under Section 1 (3)?
Do I need to mention this in the application if I apply under section 1 (3)?
The guide says, the child should not be more than 270 days away from uk if we apply under section 3 (5)
Code: Select all
NB If the application is made under section 3 (5), you should also check that the child
was physically present in the United Kingdom or a qualifying territory (see list on page
8) 3 years before the date that the application will be received by the Home Office or
other receiving authority (see page 30 “Where to send the application form”). If this
requirement is not met then an application under section 3 (5) is unlikely to be
successful.
To satisfy the residence requirement under section 3 (5) the child should not have been
absent for more than 270 days in the three year period
