Post by ILR_Applicant » Tue Feb 07, 2012 11:35 am

Hi,

Father is on ILR and mother is on spouse visa(i.e FLR(m)) kid born in UK. I think we can directly apply for his British PP.

is it suffice if i send below documents

1) application form
2) father passport
3)full birth certificate
4)marriage certificate


is mother's passport required? and do they need all above documents...please suggest if any thing missing

A child born before the parent acquired ILR is not automatically British, the children would need to be registered under Section 1(3) of the British Nationality Act in order to be British, once the parent has been granted ILR.

kid born in UK
child born in 2012..father holds ILR since 2011
On those facts the baby was British from the moment of birth, so no need to fill in a form MN1.

Just apply for a British passport for the baby. But a problem! How to get an acceptable passport pic of the baby? Strongly suggest you use a professional photographer to get that pic taken, of a baby so young.

Actually when was the baby born? You merely tell us 2012.

John..baby born on 02/02/2012 ... I have found out that we can get just born pics at snappy snaps..

@sunil...what made you to think child can not become british..if one of the parent already holds ILR

Wow, just 5 days old! Congratulations, and hope that both mother and baby are doing well.

Good you have found someone to take the passport pic for you. Certainly for a baby that young it is essential to get the pic taken by an experience person.

@ ILR_Applicant ...

I wasn't doubtful about the baby getting citizenship .. but was not sure of the process for babies born after parent acquires ILR ... as Greenie clarified, you dont need to use NM1 registration ....
