Hello
I am due to apply MN1 for my son who was born in UK and I've ILR. I just wanted to know that if they require marriage certificate or not as my wife came to uk as my dependent and surely we provided it at that time, then we had 2 extensions together, of course she as my spouse and dependent.
So do they still require marriage certificate? ours is in Urdu and it will cost me at least £100 to get it professionally translated.
Secondly, the people who posted their applications, If you have a foreign passport, did you provide photocopies or original? If photocopies, did home office asked you to send the passport later.
I am asking all these questions so that I can send the application myself by post. Thanks in advance.

If you're applying by post you should send original documents and passports. Otherwise, you can use NCS to keep your originals.
Because you're applying for your son, you only need to send his passport if he has one, you don't need to send yours.

Marriage certificate is required.
When I applied for my son, I didn't get our certificate translated. Ours is an international marriage certificate in French, even I'm not French :) . So, there was no English translation. On the acknowledgement letter, it's accepted as "foreign language document".

I think you need to make your application with your original marriage certificate. If they ask for translated one, you can send it later. I don't think your application will be declined for that reason. Mine is accepted.

Hi members

Tomorrow I am sending my 2 sons MN1 application. But before I send I just feed back from senior. I will appreciate very help given here.

I am sending following documents

1. Full birth certificate of both
2. Passport and BRP for elder son (younger one doesn't have any passport and BRP) I think that should be ok as both are born in UK
3. Attested copies of my my passport and BRP
4. Attested copies of my marriage contract. (Will it be accepted??)

Now I have got few queries here.

1. Is it ok to send attested passport, brp and marriage certificate copies? Or do I need to send originals.
2. Should I put 2 application is a single envelope with single fee note and only single copies of my attested documents.
3. In section 1.9 of form it ask for nationality. What should I put for my younger son as I haven't got my home country passport for him neither I applied for dependent visa as I applied for ILR shortly after his birth and whole idea was to apply direct BC once I get ILR. I have put my nationality at the moment as by origin.

Could seniors please reply.

Thanks

You didn't have to have attested copies of your passport and brp but if you have done so, that's ok. for marriage cert if that's in foreign language then you'll have to get it translated (certified as I have just done mine and paid online for this service).
Your children inherit your nationality so by birth they are the national of your country of origin.
You can also use National Checking Service which will cost you £50 for both kids, they'll copy all original documents and will return it back to you. Hence you didn't have to have them attested. The money you might have had paid towards attestation would have done the NCS appointment and peace of mind. I'll be getting appointment from NCS and will get my originals back as I would need them to apply for benefits. Hope this will help you. Thanks

Hi tier1check,

[Hi
I am in the same situation when did you finally recieve your approval?

I have applied for my little one British Nationalty Registration under section1(3). I have applied on 09 Dec last year still havent recieved any acknowledgement from home office. They have taken the payment off my account on 18 Jan 2014 still there isnt any communication from home office. I have applied using Nationality Checking Service at Birmingham register office.

I am really worried now why I have not recieved any approval or any communication? Do you know any number where I can make a call to home office?

Thanks]

Question to the Guru's or anyone with information:
I received the registration certificate under the MN1 and the approval letter from Home Office for my child.
If I am applying for her British passport now,are these documents enough ?? Or do I still need to send my ILR and the birth certificate of the child
Advise please. Thanx

Kadd, You need to send current passport, certificate of Naturalisation ( All originals) with passport application form. Please ensure you send it through Post office check & send.

You should receive your child's passport in 2-3 weeks.
