British Passport for Child under 16 - One parent on ILR

[kUMARI16]

Hi,

I am on ILR from 2018 January (5 year route) status and my wife is on PBS Dependent Tier 2 category status where as my son was born on Jan 2019 . So as per my understanding I can apply for UK Passport for my son by providing my ILR BRP as a proof and I don't need to register my son for citizenship. Is that correct? Could someone please confirm.

Many thanks in advance

Where was your child born?

@Simon,

My son was born in UK

If your son was born in the UK after you had acquired ILR, then you are correct that your son can apply directly for a British Passport.

@Simon,

Many thanks for your quick update. Yes, my son born in UK on Jan 2019 and I am holding ILR status from 2018 on wards so I hope my son is eligible for applying British Passport.

Thank you for confirming.
