Dear All,
Please can you help me with a couple of details regarding the MN1 form for my child to be registered as a British citizen.
Background - I have an Indian passport and recently received my ILR. My husband is on a separate Tier 2 general visa. My son (2 year old) was born before i received my ILR therefore I am starting to apply for registration now.
1. References - The form mentions that one of the references needs to know my son in a professional capacity - school, nursery, gp or health visitor. Since he is only 2 he does not go to school and his GP mentioned that they cannot be used as a reference. Even his nursery has declined to share the level of personal details needed.
So not sure whether i can just use 2 references that are British passport holders and know my child (non related to the child)
2. Since my son's current BRP is valid till Feb '23, if I start the registration process can he travel? If while we are outside the UK his application is successful, is his original BRP still valid so that he can return?
3. Since India does not have dual citizenship, when do i need to notify them to return his passport/indian citizenship? Is this when i apply for the Bristah passport ( post the registration process) or after receiving the british passport?
Any advise on timelines or home office helpline to contact will be much appreciated
Thank you
Warm Regards
Supriya
