My wife and I have ILR. 3 yrs old child born in UK (had Tier 1 but now expired).

Questions:
1. I know NCS checks documents and all but does it make a difference to processing times by any chance please?

2. I got my ILR 11 months back and am planning to apply for Citizenship for my wife and I - do I need to send my wife and my Indian Passports for child MN1 application as I am planning to apply for citizenship for both of us in parallel to child MN1 - I hope I can do that?

3. I also see some questions on the forum about combined MN1 and Passport application. How do I do this please? Do I send in MN1 form and Passport form at the same time / together or?

Assist Please.

Thanks & Regards,
kyborg

1- There is no difference in terms of processing times.
2- You can apply in parallel if you NCS. You need ILR proof and passport for MN1. I would suggest using NCS for all the applications. This way you can keep your originals. If you don't use NCS then you will need to send orginal documents with MN1 and may not be able to apply for naturalization.
3- You send passport and MN1 form together. Very few NCS are offering this but it's far more convenient. I would again suggest this if you can travel to NCS offering this.

1) No difference.

2) If confident in strength of all the applications you can apply altogether in a single bundle, ie 2 AN forms plus MN1 form plus all supporting evidence.
Apply either directly or via NCS.
