• I believe the form I need to fill is Form - MN1 and the Section I need to fill is Section 1 (3).

• Is this really required? I do have a UK Border Agency Reference number (from my ILR Approval Letter) but it is not in the correct format as mentioned in a Guidance (where it states, it is an Alphabet followed by 7 numbers i.e., S1234567), but what I have is all 8 numbers (e.g., 12345678)

• Not sure what to answer here as my son was born in the UK, should I give his Date Of Birth here along with the City he was born in or should I just write N/A or leave blank?

• Should I skip the whole Section 4 too?!?

• Since my son is very young, I'll be signing the declaration on his behalf. No problems here, the thing which is a bit confusing is the following question

• Do I need to tick this one? As none of the parent of the child has a Britsh Passport, all we have and looking to send are our BRPs and our country of Origin Passports

First of all, Thank you to all who helped me in securing an ILR Visa by answering my queries. I am very grateful to you all. Now that, me and my wife have ILR, it's time to register my son (born in the UK) as a British Citizen. Since my son was born at the time when I was on a Tier-1 (General) visa and my wife was on a Dependent visa. So keeping this in view,

• I believe the form I need to fill is Form - MN1 and the Section I need to fill is Section 1 (3).

This all cleared now, I tried filling the form but I am sort of stuck and have a few queries which I hope you will be able to help me with, so here goes,

Section 1: Personal Information
Question 1.2 - UK Border Agency reference number?

• Is this really required? I do have a UK Border Agency Reference number (from my ILR Approval Letter) but it is not in the correct format as mentioned in a Guidance (where it states, it is an Alphabet followed by 7 numbers i.e., S1234567), but what I have is all 8 numbers (e.g., 12345678)

I have never filled it. Leave it blank and you'll be fine

Section 2: Residence Requirements
Question 2.1 - If the child is resident in the United Kingdom, please give date and place of first arrival

• Not sure what to answer here as my son was born in the UK, should I give his Date Of Birth here along with the City he was born in or should I just write N/A or leave blank?

Leave it blank or N/A it


Section 4: Good Character Requirement
This section applies to the child applicant if they are aged 10 and over.You need to give information which will help the Home Secretary to decide whether he can be satisfied that they are of good character. Checks will be made with the police and possibly other Government Departments, the Security Service and other agencies.

• Should I skip the whole Section 4 too?!?

as it says you only need to fill it if child is 10 or over

Section 7: Declaration

• Since my son is very young, I'll be signing the declaration on his behalf. No problems here, the thing which is a bit confusing is the following question

7.6 - Where I have provided a photocopy of my parent’s, adoptive parent’s or grandparent’s British passport, I confirm that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, it is a complete and full copy of that original document.

• Do I need to tick this one? As none of the parent of the child has a Britsh Passport, all we have and looking to send are our BRPs and our country of Origin Passports

leave it blank. Are you using NCS? They copy and certify the documents anyway.

Well I am sorry if it's a long list, I am just trying to finish and send the form as soon as possible, as I need to travel very soon and also getting good priced tickets, but cannot buy tickets unless this process is completed. Please do help me out

Looking forward to all of your replies.

Thank you
