I applied for my daughter naturalisation in 2nd week of november. Deduction of fees happened on 14 Jan but i haven't received any further communication yet.
Is there any number i can reach on or email them?[/quote]
Hi tier1check,
I have exactly the same situation as you with more or less the same timeline. Have you had any luck ?
[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.

You can give them a call and enquire. If they visa is expiring it does not make any difference to your kids as they are british born, unless you have a travel plans outside UK.
