Can someone can kindly reply?

I'm a bit confused now! Can someone explain please? So if you apply for BC, are you not allowed to travel on your previous passport/ILR in the meantime? How do you know if you have become a BC if your application is approved while you were on holidays etc? Say for example, I am applying for BC next ...

Thank you very much Jambo.

In section 2.1 (date and place of first arrival). Do we have to fill in if the child was born in UK ( in which case its date and place of birth)? Or leave it blank if born in UK?

Do we need to fill in section 4 (Good Character) even if the child is under 10 years old?

Many thanks.

Thank you very much Lucapooka, got your point.

Thanks for your replies Lucapooka and Vinny. @Lucapooka, how does it look like she is abusing the guidance on visit visa by making short trips back home when total stay in a year is not more than 180 days? That is what I want to clear that the guidance is total stay of 180 days in a year in UK, so d...

This is not permitted for visitors to the UK. I have taken into account the reason for your proposed travel now. However I am not satisfied t...
