I wanted to update you on my child's MN1 Registration submission. I sent it through the post on 2nd August 2023, and the tracking information confirms its delivery. However, up to now, they have not processed the application fee.
Looking back, I realise I should have opted for the online submission instead of the postal method. I was uncertain about the availability of the online service at that time.
In case I don't observe any progress in terms of the fee being processed within the next two months, and considering my attempts to contact them have gone unanswered, I am contemplating resubmitting the application online. This approach would not only allow me to make the payment promptly but also ensure that the application is securely in their system.
Do you have any recommendations regarding whether I should proceed with this course of action?
I appreciate your time and contribution.

Not clear why you went for a postal application - if you are in the UK then online is the preferred option.
Postal applications take longer to process as will have been pointed out on the UKVI website. I would contact them urgently if it was indeed in 2022 you applied. I wouldn't start an online application until you find out what happened with the postal application.
The child is 18 months old, was born abroad, and currently resides abroad. The child qualifies under section 3(2)
I appreciate your feedback.Thank you so much for your input. I'm currently contemplating drafting a letter to UKVI to request confirmation of receipt for the form I submitted, as there hasn't been any payment processed yet. Should I go ahead with composing and sending this letter? or should I leave it and wait? As you mentioned earlier, some members experienced a payment processing time of around 4 to 5 months.CR001 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 17, 2023 7:14 pmThen the paper form is the correct way to apply.
Payments can take a few months for paper forms, some members have had payment taken at around 4 to 5 months after receipt by UKVI.
Presumably you are aware a 3(2) Registration will make your child British by Descent as well, therefore unable to pass it on to their children born abroad.

You do know the options and referred to the experiences of others so it is your decision on contacting HO or waiting.CR001 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 17, 2023 7:14 pmThen the paper form is the correct way to apply.

Yes, I am aware 3(2) Registration are unable to pass it on to their children born abroad. I hope that by then, they will have established their residence in the UK and, with the grace of God, their children will be born in the UK, rather than abroad.
