It has been over a year when my Son who born out side the UK (Pakistan) and my wife got their ILR, now when i am filling their online naturaliztion application i came across few questions which i do not know what to answer and what documents do i need.Just to let you know i am not a British citizen but have ILR.
1. My wife application says "Apply for naturalisation as a British Citizen" is it correct? or i am filling a wrong application from? Please see attached image "Visa appliation" for reference There's only 1 form AN. Correct
2.While completing my wife's online applicaton they asked do you want to add a dependent, i selected yes and then registration form of my son started after completing this it says "Apply for registration of a child under 18 as a British citizen"is it correct? or i am filling a wrong application form? Please see attached image "Visa appliation" for reference.Correct
3. They asked "Proof of living in the UK for Mrs xxxxxxx for 5 years if applying in your own right or 3 years if applying as the spouse of a British Citizen" ?
---What could be this proof, I think i can not submit bills, bank statments,etc. but if not then what else? only Passport and travelling stamps? and if yes does it mean hers all three passport and all those pages which has travelling (immigratons) stamps on it?Hers and your sons passport for the last 5 years would suffice.
4. They reqired "Proof of Mr xxx parental responsibility for Mr xxx "?
---What it could be? I have Son's birth certficate from my Native country (Pakistan) which has mine and my wife's name on it, will be this be sufficient?Birth cert
5.A letter of consent from Mr xxx parent(s) or legal guardian(s)?
---What is this from and from where i am going to get this form? i have not submitted application form yet, will this be provided to download once i submit application? My son is 10 years old what he got to attach with this consent form?You're a parent, so just type something up and attach with the application.
6.Another requirement which says "If Mr xxx told us that their parent is a British citizen then you must provide us evidence of their citizenship. This could include their British passport, a certificate of citizenship or their birth certificate."?
---System was not letting me to go to the next screen if i did not check all the boxes on document screen which i have to provide,but i am not a british national, does it mean i just do not need to provide document for this requriment becauase they used word "if"?Yes, you can't provide what you don't have, and what you're not. The form just caters for all applications, so it's optional.
7.Another question which i was not sure what option i need to select is "Have you made any previous UK immigration applications in the UK or abroad?"
---Does it mean my families precvious visa application when they get ILR or dependent visas? or they asking did my family ever apply for naturlization before?They're asking for all the applications you've made, from the 1st one that got you into the Settlement route, till you finally got ILR. ALL!
8. They asked "Are either of the parents of the child (as stated in this application) applying for naturalisation as a British citizen on an AN form?"
---Does this AN form mean online application for my wife, but they already know because while filling hers online form only at that point my Son's registration started, or they asking family has applied through the paper version as well?They're asking because a different department might be taking a look at the form AN and form MN. They need to be able to tie them together. It's not a trick question.
I know its quite boring to read lengthy text but i am sorry i do not have any other option. Your guidance and support will be highly apprecitate.
Thanks & Regards

Once i submitted online form for my wife and son, i was given the option to download few documents, one of them is Referee form, i am wondering Referee form for all referee will same? The same referees can be for your son and your partner.
Second question is my son is10 year and when i downloaded the form it it has descripiton "1st_Referee_Declaration_MN1", is it not for my son referee only? If yes then from where i can download other forms?If the system in error gives you only one form, why not make a copy of it and write 2nd refree on it.
So bascially i have to provided two refress for each application does it mean all four will have same form? 2 referees each, but the 2 refs can sign for the pair of them. One has to be a professional of any country, and the other must be a Brit over the age of 25.
Best Regards

Once the form is submitted, there's no going back. You can submit a cover letter explaining your mistake and the steps you've taken to correct it. provided you've not done your biometrics yet. If you have, just relax, they'll contact you with the request to find another referee that fits the requirements.shahid78 wrote: ↑Mon May 23, 2022 9:56 amHi,
First of all thanks for you reply, i have posted another post but did not get answer yet, i have made a mistake about referees, when i completed application and read description about referee i found out that one of the referee should be a professional like accounant and Teachercorrect, but wife's both referee are british national and over 25,they are neither teacher nor accountant or solicitor but their profession is IT, i can not go back and edit form anymore. also
my son is ten years old i think they metnioned for him it should be teacherDoesn't have to be, just a professional. It just says ideally a teacher that has had interactions with the child. But they're not so fussy with kids. but i used same referee for my wife and son.
Is there any way to edit application?

I have removed your attachments as you have NOT blacked out all the personal information.shahid78 wrote: ↑Tue May 24, 2022 1:30 amHi All,
Since i have submitted my family (Wife & Son) online form for naturlization (registration for son) i received an email where they said they will contact me within 10 days to let me know they can reuse family's biomertic or not, but i have checked i can upload the documents.
When i open the tab for my wife to upload hers documetns it has two main tab one is "Mandatory documents" and other is optional documnt, in Mandatory tab there is a head called "Proof of application" when i clicked on it says "The passport issued by Pakistan for Mrs xxxShahid", i do have uploaded the passport but then its not opening any other category or not asking me to submit anymore documetns.
In optional tab there are few other tabs as below:
Document Type
Status
Other
Residence in the UK
Finances
Proof of Business
Life Events
Medical Information
Sponsors / Employment
Proof of Identity / Travel History
Educational
I beleive they are optional and i do not have to submit any of documents for these ones.
Now question is why i am not seeing any category for Mandatory tab like optional tab where they ask me what document they need and i will upload documents according to the catrogry.?
Please find attached images for reference.

Shahid

I have applied for family and waiting for a email which will let me know could be family resuse their biometric or not.
What if i upload and submit documents now on UKVCAS website and later if they ask to use IDV app does it mean i will have to scan all these documents again or there is a data sync between UKVCAS webiste and IDV App? Yes, all the uploaded data will appear on IDV app.
Note: Once you submit your documents then you cannot replace or remove them.
