MN1 section 3(1) application
Posted: Mon May 30, 2016 8:09 pm
My child was born in uk 2012 and then they went back to pakistan since 2013.I recently got ILR and I was thinking to apply their visas and then I saw this post.UK born
In the child was born in the UK before one parent had ILR/PR, then once one parent is granted ILR, the child is entitled register as BC under section 1(3) of the British Nationality Act irrespective of their immigration status.
This application is an entitlement and as such the HO has no discretion in the decision if the statutory requirements are met. The application can be made any time before the child is 18. The only documents required are UK birth certificate and evidence that parent obtained ILR/PR. The application can be made if the child is in the UK or abroad.
If the child was born in the UK after one parent has ILR/PR, then the child is British from birth and can apply directly for a passport.
My question is can I apply for his registration under this rule from uk while my child is in Pakistan?? if yes then how I gonna do his biometric here?? And last thing about referees how can they verify if they have not seen him since 2013??
Thanks
