Please don't post your queries in the Timeline thread - it says Timeline ONLY - start your own thread - continue here with your posts.

Child does have a nationality! It's the parents' nationality. Select the country where you come from. No need for paper form.

No issue. Citizenship is NOT an immigration application.

You also did NOT have to stop claiming benefits!!

Thank you - just now i saw a topic in citizen advice which you locked or something ( iam sorry i am find new here where to post and reply).

citizen advice says in there website - IF YOU GET MORE MONEY FROM BENEFITS BECAUSE OF YOUR PARTNER OR CHILD , THIS MIGHT MAKE IT DIFFICULT FO RTHEM TO EXTEND THEIR VISA OR GET ilr.

Question - my child does not hold any visa or passport . born in Uk in 2019 .

Any advice or comments please.

You are taking a quote out of context ..... you are not applying for a visa or ILR...
However, if you are on ILR you are allowed to claim child benefit. https://www.gov.uk/child-benefit-move-to-uk
For nationality applications (which are not visas!) there are no financial requirements - your child will be ok with the MN1 application, so will you be if/when you apply for naturalisation.

alterhase58 -- Thank you very much . i was thinking Mn1 is indefinite to leave . but technically spoken its citizenship.

Not "technically" - legally it's citizenship, your child is registering as British citizen under the British Nationality Act, not under immigration rules.

one last question please -SORRY this 1 found in MN1 GUIDE
IGNORE 2 PARAGRAH I KEPT TO UNDERSTAND .IAM CONFUSED OF 3 PARA . MY KID IS 4 1/2 YEARS

Financial soundness
Among the duties and obligations which you are expected to fulfil is payment of income tax and National Insurance contributions. We may ask H.M. Revenue & Customs for confirmation that the child’s tax and National Insurance affairs are in order. When you sign the application form you will be giving your consent for us to approach them.

If a child is liable for income tax but does not pay through PAYE, you must demonstrate that their obligations towards the H.M. Revenue & Customs have been discharged by attaching a Self-Assessment Statement of Account.

You must tell us if the child has ever been declared bankrupt, engaged in fraud in relation to public funds (including claiming public funds to which they were not entitled or were prohibited from accessing, or failing to declare their full circumstances), or have an unpaid NHS debt of £500 or more.
