Hello All,

I am in the middle of applying for my new born first British passport.

I have Indian passport & ILR, my wife has spouse visa. I was wondering what documents do I need to send with the applicaiton?

Also online form is asking to fill in details of maternal grandparents. Does this mean my wife's parents?

If I dont have these information can I leave them blank?

Also is there anything else I need to know?

I really appreciate all the experts here. Please share your experience & knowledge.

Thank you in advance

Grandparent details not required.

The passport guidance notes tells you what you need to send. See link below 'Passpors'.

p.s. note that we are all volunteers (unpaid) who have jobs and family etc, suggest in future wait a bit longer than 13 minutes to 'bump' your query/post/topic.
