If you have ILR already and your son was born in UK you will need to regieter him as a british citizen by using MN1 form.
You will need the following documents with this application
1- Your son Full Birth certificate
2- Your passport (with ILR stamp on it)3- Your marriage certificate (Only if your son is born before 1st July 2006)
If your son is born after 1 july 2006 then u dont have to give your marraige certificate.
Cost of MN1 Form in £540.
So as long as one of the parent either mother or father have ILR and child is born in UK you can always get british citizensip for your child.
If your son is born after you got ILR, then he is british by birth , he dosent need any registeration, you can simply apply for his passport by getting a passport form post office and attach the required documents.
I hope it clarifies your question.

Good luck.. Any more questions ask me!
I did not use NCS service, as they were giving me a long time for NCS appointment , so i choose to sent my orignal passport and birth certificate of my son. I did send a prepaidd guarnteed next dat delivery envelope just to make sure that my passports dont get lost by thier 2nd class post.
My application was recieved by Nationality Directorate on 6/4/2011 and i recieved approval on 15/05/2011 and letter was dated 12/05/2011. So about 5 weeks processing time.
MN1 applications are simple as kids are born in the UK and its easy to do verifications for ND.
Hope it helps the question
Friends, Need a quick advice, as per many conversations in this thread(some attached above), its always been said that the Parent(s) Passport should be sent to UKBA for an MN1 application.
However looking at the UKBA website and guidance, it seems that it is not applicable to all application types
Home office website gives the impression that if a child is born in the UK and applying for Naturalisation under MN1 - Section 1(3), the parent(s)
DOES NOT need to send their passport(s).
Pls follow the link for the information im referring to:

Kindly someone pls advice if the parents need to send their passport with the application for a uk born child applying under MN1 - Section 1(3)??
