Hi
I have recently received ILR (under tier1 general). My wife’s visa extension is under progress. Now I want to apply for registering my new UK born baby(born before my ILR ) as British citizen.

I tried submitting online form but it is asking to confirm that I will be submitting officially issued identity document like travel document or national identity card. I do not have any documents except full birth certificate.

I have not applied for Indian Passport for my baby
as there is no point applying and then returning.

Please can anyone help in confirming what documents I should submit for my child apart from birth certificate? Should I apply first for an identity card like xxxxxxx? third party weblink removed by moderator.

Thanks in advance.

A UK born child does not require a passport etc for citizenship application.

Thanks CR001 for quick response!!!

I am submitting below documents apart from forms and photos. Do you think these are enough?

Baby’s full UK birth certificate
Mine and my wife’s Passport and BRP copy
Marriage certificate (as proof of parental responsibility)

Thanks

Only ILR parent passport and ILR BRP is required.

Marriage cert not required for children born after 2006.
