Hi I am expecting my first child birth in the UK around end of May 2019 and I am currently on Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) which was granted to me on 15th November 2018. I have few questions below regarding my child citizenship and passport

1) Once my child is born will he be automatically considered a British Citizen since I am on ILR?

2) If the answer to the above Que 1 is YES then how I will be applying for my child passport?

3) If the answer to the above Que 1 is NO then how I will apply my child's British Citizenship and subsequently passport?

1. Yes.

2. Apply for passport directly yes.

3. Not relevant.

Thanks CR001 for your prompt response.
Can you please send me a Home Office link for the application of the Child British passport?
Also can you please advice what are the pre-requisites which are required to apply a new born British passport? Like Birth Certificate etc?

And yes, you need the birth certificate.
