Re: Fee waiver for adult British Citizenship application

There is no fee waiver option for naturalisation applications. Naturalisation is an entirely voluntary application (i.e. by that time the applicant already has ILR and their right to reside in the UK is unaffected by the naturalisation application) and there is no time limit by which is it must be ...

Re: ILR for kids with skilled worker dependent visa

No, they cannot get ILR. Children do not have any residence requirement for ILR and they settle when both parents settle. They will strictly follow the immigration path of the less privileged parent and will settle with that parent. The father becoming British changes nothing. Thanks for your ...

MN1 form, how to receive the certificate

Hi

I have applied to register my son (under 18) as a British citizen (MN1).
I am aware that I will directly receive the certificate via post. No ceremony required.
Is it tracked mail? via ParcelForce or DPD (with ID verification when receiving the certificate)? Or untracked Royal Mail?
thanks

If a the child is subject to immigration control (ie - no recourse to public funds restriction) you claiming benefits due to their presence may breach their immigration restrictions.

 Hi

Main applicant has ILR, based on skilled worker visa.
Kids are still on skilled worker dependent visa, and are not eligible for the ILR yet.

Can the main applicant, who has ILR, apply for child benefits for kids with skilled worker dependent visa?

Thanks

 Related means "by blood or marriage" - friends, colleagues, etc are fine.
In my case I had two referees, same company, both colleagues working with me and each other.
I see, that make sense. Thank you very much for your great help.
