Citizenship for Minor

Post by ram19 » Mon Sep 22, 2025 9:26 pm

Hi Team,

1) I would like to confirm whether the form for the spouse is AN and if the child, who is 17, the form is MN1. Is this correct?

2) I am applying only for my spouse and my kid and in the MN1 form of section 3
Section 3 - Parents’ residence in the UK or the British
overseas territories, where applicable

State which parent is the one who is a British citizen by descent and on whom this
application is based
i am not clear since both of us are not British citizen.

Thanks

What form are you using? File the application online for your spouse first, then add the child. https://visas-immigration.service.gov.uk/your-location

The adult child will need to complete their own form and meet all the requitments individually as an adult, ie LIUK, English B1, absence limits etc.

The kid above 18 is an adult in their own right and need to meet all the same requirements as yourself, including waiting for a year after ILR (assuming that they are not married to a British citizen).

They will also need an English language test, unless they have completed a degree course (not A levels or in an undergraduate course, etc) and got a degree certificate from a UK university.
