Re: Registration of (child name) and (child name 2) as British Citizens


To Whom It May Concern:

This letter is a formal request for the registration of (child name) and (child name 2) as British citizens, under Section 1(3) of the British Nationality Act 1981.

Both (child name) and (child name 2) were born in the UK and have lived here all their lives. They are of good character and apart from short holidays abroad for (child name), totaling less than (x-number) days throughout (his/her) lifetime, (aaaa-address), UK has been their home. We, their parents, have been granted settlement with Indefinite Leave to Remain on (date/ month/ year). It is on these grounds that we are requesting registration, according to the Home Office eligibility requirements for children born in the UK with parents becoming settled afterwards.

We have submitted the completed application form and the documents requested in the MN1 guidance notes. Additionally, we have submitted copies of our Biometric Residence Permits and Marriage certificate for further information.

Should you need further details, please do not hesitate to request these via our email addresses, (ccccc@sample) and (bbbbb@sample) phone (mob/ landline), or by post, using the above address.

Yours sincerely,


(Parents name)
Parents of (child name & child name 2)

babe_khyber, can you explain more about your 2 children who got refused? I am also planning applying for my children's BC through sec 1.3 and 3.1.
My question is
1. Did your two children get ILR before the BC application?
2. How old are they?
3. How long did they stay in the UK?

It would be much appreciated if you tell me more about this.
Your two children's case is disappointing. Sorry to hear that

Method of application: NCS (NEWHAM)

Date of receipt by UKBA: 9th May 2013
Date of debit of fees: 13-05-2013 (£1,178)
Date of receipt of acknowledgement: 15-05-13 (dated 13-05-13)

Date of receipt of documents: N/A
Date of receipt of registration certificate: 31-05-13 dated (28-05-13)

It was rather quick, took 23 days to get the certificate. One thing I don't get, everyone is talking about receipt of approval and receipt of certificate, I received the certificates today with a cover letters (in the same envelope) that seem to be the approval letter.
Should I be expecting some sort of special approval letter?
