Re: Child's Naturalisation Application

Son will be a British citizen then!
Any visa status he may have had before becoming British is extinguished and as a citizen he is free from all immigration restrictions.
Naturalisation is not an immigration visa. For travel he needs a British passport (apply once the certificate is issued).

Re: British Citizineship App about Passport and Referees

You can upload documents in advance of the appointment. Uploading yourself is free. The appointment is only for providing biometrics, in person. There’s no review of your application or documents. You can book the upload with the appointment, a chargeable service.

Re: British Citizineship App about Passport and Referees

1. You upload scans of all documents, including your passport, therefore you are free to travel. Not sure about the "way round" - do you understand the requirements? Letters, etc are not required. For residency the copy of your passport is sufficient for ILR holders. 2. Referees fill in a form, they ...

Re: Lost Naturalisation Certificate

You have no paperwork at all regarding your naturalisation?
Do you know the date you attended the council's ceremony?
That would be the date on the certificate. Try to contact the council's registry office.

Caseworker will know the child's age - there's nothing to explain to them, except perhaps mention this to the referee in case they also query this.

The government issued a "White Paper", a basis for discussion and evaluation, and eventually for changing some regulation. No laws or regulations are currently before parliament or at implementation stage. Applications submitted now will be under current rules .

UK Passport is not compulsory, you can apply anytime once you are British.
Note it's not an immigration application and will take up to around 3 weeks, per HMPO website, often faster.

Place of birth in a British passport is a Town/City/Village name, not a country, same goes for birth certificates .... If you write Italy they'll likely come back and ask for the place name, so you could address this up front, by stating your actual place of birth. And it's not something your ...

Very common.
Book your ceremony, you have been approved and the council has your certificate. UKVI email will follow. There’s always a delay.

You can apply with an expired passport. Depending on the time elapsed since expiry best to include a document proving residency for that time, pay slips covering the period for example.

a small question on the AN form about parent information: if one parent passed away, just inputs his/her basic information w/o mentioning his/her death right?
Yes - no need to mention death - I think the only detail is Date and Place of Birth.
Certainly based on my application.
