Hello
I.m new to this forum.i need your advice.i have recieved my PR today.i applied as a eea and that was eea3 form.now my son was born in the uk and i would like to register him as a BC.he was born before i obtained my Pr,so i understand i must register him first before i sent request for a british passport.my questions are:how to do it ,what form i will need to use and how much does it cost.thank you for your replay i know there is a few people here who knows a lot about immigration law.thank you

Just to confirm - was your child born before you completed 5 years of residence in the UK? The date in your PR blue booklet is irrelevant. Under EEA regulations, PR is obtained automatically after 5 years of exercising treaty rights. EEA3 application is just confirmation of the status.

If he was born after the 5 years (and before tou received the blue booklet), the child is British from birth. If he was born before the 5 years, you can register him as BC (assuming he was born in the UK).

I suggest you start by reading Citizenship FAQs - Common Questions - Read before posting - Children.

Thank you for replay jumbo.

The FAQ I linked to has all the answers but there is no need to send the EEA3 evidence again.
