Hello Guys
We are in the process of applying for our Child's First British Passport from India.
I'd appreciate if anyone could kindly clarify the following points
1. ''BOTH parents British passports (we are naturalised citizens) must be submitted along with the application [to confirm citizenship at the time of conception]'' (Supporting Document Guide Aug 2014 page 5). My wife is in India who will be applying on behalf of our daughter and I am currently in the UK. I called HMPO who advised me to SEND my British passport to India so that my wife can submit it to VFS who will return it back to her after confirmation. Can anyone advise me if it is OK to courier my British Passport to India for this purpose while I am here in the UK?
2. ''One of the documents provided should show a link to the parent applying and show that the child and parent are living at the address given'' (Supporting Document Guide Aug 2014 page 3). Since my wife went to India while she was 30 weeks pregnant and currently living with her parents, the only document we can produce in this context is the Indian hospital record and hospital discharge summary. Is this going to be sufficient?
Many thanks in advance.
