Every BRP you applied for, whether a BRP renewal, a visa extension or replacing a lost BRP, will each have their own new identifying number.

2. Do you mean and can confirm that a renwed BRP (for those with ILR) has a different number from the one in the initial BRP that was valid for 10 years?

Each BRP issued has its own unique number. It is not the same number for the whole immigration journey.

1. Standard Service (6 months wait) 2. Super-Priority Service (Next Working Day) That is all that is available for Set(M). We were hoping to use the 'Priority Service' which is £500 less than the Super-Priority Service; is this not available for SET M? 5 day Priority service is not available for Se...

Or do they have to get their Schengen visa from India before travelling to the UK.

They need to apply in India before travelling. As part of the Schengen visa process within the UK, they have to prove they have residence in the UK (BRP card for example), which they don't have.

It is their visa category that determines the form they apply on, regardless of what doesn't feel right. You need to complete the form as best you can. Their ILR is based on your previous visa category and you now holding ILR.

It does not matter in which order the forms are.

You applied using the wrong form!

They apply on form SET(O). You need to submit a new application, and will have to pay fees again. The other fees will be refunded.

Apply passort directly

Which form are you completing?

Are you sure you are filling in form MN1?

Our baby was born on 14th April 2024.

Where was the baby born, in the uk or abroad?

Q1. No such requirments. A uk born child has an entitlement to register as british regardless of where they are located. children do not have a residence requirment

Q2. He is eligible. Does not need to be in the uk.

Free to travel.

Note that passports from abroad can take anywhere between 16 weeks and 12 months. Applications are a paper form and has to be posted to the UK with all original supporting documents. Plan accordingly.

You only need ONE of the UK degrees.

Just passport yes.

@ alterhase58 Is it fine to have the child, who's born in the UK, reside in the UK without a legal residence status while their citizenship application (MN1) is under progress ? I've got my ILR in Feb 24, and the current dependent status of my child is coming to an end in June 2024. So he'll be wit...

I have edited your topic. Keep ilr questions separate to MN1 questions please! They are totally different applications and rules.

Set O if she has held a pbs dependent visa for 5 years.

Form MN1 is for registering a child as british if born before a parent got ilr. It is an application under section 1(3), which is an entitlement to register as british Form SET O is for ilr, you are not applying for ilr for the child. The child doesnt need ilr. Your wifr applies for ilr on form set ...

There was no need to switch her visa category after you got ilr. She could have simply continued extending her pbs dependent visa till she qualified for ilr in Set O, which is for ilr not an extension.

You cannot combine pbs dependent and flr m spouse visa time to make up 5 years for ILR.

She needs 5 years flr m spouse visa OR 5 years pbs dependent.

Set M is for spouse visa holders afyer 5 years

Set O is for pbs dependents afyer 5 years

Third party declaration is not needed. Not sure what you mean by family consent.
