Registering the Child as British Citizen

[JohnKU]

Hi All,


I and my wife have got indefinite to leave in the UK on 11/01/2012. Now we are applying for British Citizenship.

Together our applications we are also applying for our 4 year old who was born in the UK in 2009.

My question is in which section should we apply for the child applcation.

Based on the MN1 guide:

section 1 (3) birth in the UK to parents who are now settled in the UK or have become British citizens.

or

section 3 (1) child whose parents are applying for British citizenship.

Can someone shed some light on this.

Many Thanks
John

Thank you very much for your reply.

Could you also please guide about the question below:

1.30 Child's mother's full name & maiden name.

About the maiden name, Should I write mother's maiden name that she had before marriage?

But that name is not on her passport. On the passport she has my surename.

What should I write then Mother's name before marriage or the Surename on the passport now?

OR

Shall I write like below

Full Name : Jane John Smith

Maiden Name : Jones



Appriciated your help.

Many thanks
