Good Afternoon,

I am going to apply British Citizenship to my wife and My son (Who born outside UK).

My Wife and My son have got ILR a year ago and applying now British Citizenship.

In evidence List of my Son,
they are asking proof of Parental responsibility for my son and they ask separately Birth Certificate. i assume these are same document.

second question, i have selected my wife's english proof via Digital Certificate but again they are asking certificate to proof. i have already given Reference number that they can check but what document should i attach ?

last question, about below evidence. as i and my wife not British yet, why they are asking this information which i havent fill or say that we are British.

If ....... told us that their parent is a British citizen then you must provide us evidence of their
citizenship. This could include their British passport, a certificate of citizenship or their birth certificate.

Question is "If". You don't have to provide it as it does not apply to you.

If there is no certificate, explain in a cover letter that you are providing the reference number, and that your wife provided it for ILR.
