MN1 Form Query

[usr_2013]

Hi,

Please forgive me if these questions has been answered before. I got ILR last year and need to register my UK born son (Born before ILR) as a BC. At the moment my son also got ILR.
While filling the application form MN1, I have encountered some problems and hope seniors on this forum would help me.

1.1 Please indicate the section of the British Nationality Act 1981 under which you would like the application considered?
I presume the answer should be 1(3) here, is that correct?

1.2 Immigration and Nationality Directorate or Border and Immigration Agency or UK Border Agency reference number?
Is it the BRP number to be enter here or any other reference number?

2.2 Please provide details of the child’s addresses in the United Kingdom or the British overseas territories for the last 5 years. If the child has been resident for less than 5 years, please give details of all addresses since entry?
My son born on 2008 so still he is 4 ½ years old and he lives all this time in one address. It is asking the duration in this address, what should I put as TO date, is it the application submit date or do I need to mention ‘To Date’ as he still will be in this address?

Section 5 : Can I use 2nd referee as a University Lecturer (Dr.) who got a British passport?

Many thanks in advance.

Hi,

I have asked my son's reception teacher to sign as 1st referee. Basically teacher knows her about 5 months as my son started reception last year. Is this fine or do the referee known the applicant for certian years?

Thanks in advance.

I got an accountant (Private practice) friend with no uk passport. He put 'community member' in one of the boxes. Other was a BC person with no professional label.

Hi wpilr_nov12,

Thanks for your reply.

So hopefully I can use my son's teacher as first referee?? Is there any requirement that the referee should know child for certain years?

For second referee, I will use a university lecturer.

Thanks in advance

Hi wpilr_nov12,

Where it says the referee should be know the applicant for the certian year, I have gone thourgh the MN1 Guide and cannot find any information on this? It just says the below.

'One referee should have known the child personally and have been their doctor, teacher, health visitor, social worker, or minister of religion. The other referee must be a holder of a British citizen passport. He/she must be either a professional person or over the age of 25. See the list of Acceptable professional persons. Each referee must not be related to the child, or to the other referee. He/she should not be acting as a solicitor or agent in connection with the application and should not be employed by the Home Office.'

Please can you tell me where I have missed?

Thanks in advance.
