Hi, I received my ILR (10 year LR) few weeks ago and now I am planning to apply for my daughter's BC using form MN1. I have following questions:
1- My daughter's pakistani passport is expired. Do i need to renew it before apply for BC using form MN1?
2- I am applying using Section 1 (3), Do I need to fill in Section 2 of residency requirements? She is born in UK so I do not think she needs to fulfill absences requirement. Please correct me if I am wrong.
3- What documents do i need to provide with application? I am planning to provide:
-Previous Passport (Expired)
-Birth Certificate
-My ILR (BRM)
-Parents marriage certificate

is there anything else?

Thanks in advance.

Children born in the UK are not required to submit a foreign passport.
2- I am applying using Section 1 (3), Do I need to fill in Section 2 of residency requirements? She is born in UK so I do not think she needs to fulfill absences requirement. Please correct me if I am wrong.
You need to complete section 2.

Children born in the UK are not required to submit a foreign passport. Thanks for clarification.
2- I am applying using Section 1 (3), Do I need to fill in Section 2 of residency requirements? She is born in UK so I do not think she needs to fulfill absences requirement. Please correct me if I am wrong.
You need to complete section 2.Q2.1 on the form: Date of arrival, would be Date of birth? Does number of absence matter if applying under Section 1(3). Pg 18 of guidance says it only matters for section 3(5)
Thanks for your quick response. Mush appreciated.
