Thank you very much Jumbo. Help appriciated. I went thorugh given URL and few more posts in forum. There are two more questions after reading other posts - i) People have not mentioned if they have used NCS or Postal method ii) It was mentioned at some places that NCS are bit strict with Refree. In ...

Try the GP or Health visitor. Otherwise, use a professional referee. For young UK born children, the HO is not very strict on referees. Hi Jumbo, Today I have tried with GP at local surgery. She said we are excluded and can not provide reference. Called Homeoffice but phone line says if you have no...

You don't need your first entry passport when applying for naturalisation. However, I don't think you can apply until 5 years after your ILR as one of the requirements is "not been in breach of the Immigration Rules at any stage during the five-year period". Hi jumbo, as you said - I don't think yo...

thanks greenie, it is clear now

Thanks for the reply... What if i dont want my baby to be british citizen? should my wife have the delivery in india just because we dont want our baby to be british citizen.? I have some input - If you get an PIO/OCI card for your daughter and go back to India then you can get Indian Nationality b...

Q1. Child has already got a foreign passport. So after the BC registration can he travel [To-From UK]? The UK doesn't require you to enter/exit the UK on a British passport. However if your other nationality is a visa national one (Algerian for example), you can't travel without a visa to the UK so...

So if you have the same scenario and the same question what makes you think the answer will be any different? Thanks Greenie for quick reply, Sorry for not explaining the scenario clearly. The differece between mine and oqureshi's story is that I have not applied ILR for my SON. I am planning to ap...

I suggest you read - difference between citizenship and passport . Successful Registration application results in British Citizenship. If the child needs to travel, he may apply for a passport. Naturalisation applies to adults only. children apply for Registration (same outcome. Simpler requirement...

Q2. After MN1 when my son is registered for British Citizenship, Do...
