Can someone please clarify the position of a 13 year old child who has ILR and is resident in the UK and wishes to register as a British citizen and have his own UK passport?
My wife who has ILR and has been resident in the UK for more than 3 years is about to apply for naturalisation as a British Citizen. I believe her 13 year old son (born in Ukraine), who also has ILR and who lives with us in the UK, can only apply for registration as a British citizen at this time and cannot apply for naturalisation until he is 18 years old. If his application for registration as a British citizen is approved can he have his own UK passport at this time, or does he have to wait until he is 18 years old and make an application for naturalisation before he can receive a UK passport?
Alternatively, once his mother is naturalised and has her own UK passport, can her 13 year old son appear on his mother's UK passport, so that he can travel freely with us in the EEA?
Thank you!
