Good evening,

Me and my wife have became British Citizens by naturalization on September 2018. We would like to apply for a British citizenship for our son who is 8 years old and he lives here in the UK with us since he was 2 years old. He is attending school since reception and now he is in year 4.
My son hold French Citizenship and we are so confused which forms should we use to apply or what should we do to apply for his British citizenship.

Appreciate your help

Need to used form MN1 to apply for him. Was he born before or after you became British?

Hi,

Thank you for the reply. We became British citizens two months ago only and he is 8 years old so definitely he was born before our citizenship.

The problem in MN1 form is that it has many non relevant information so I am so confused if it is the correct form or not.

Regards
