Hi,
I am planning to apply for Naturalisation for my kids(age 11 and 10). We came to the UK via Tier 1 G, I got a British passport two years back, and I am planning to use it for my kids, where the ILR expires on Mar third week of 2023.
Planning to apply for Naturalisation for my wife(ILR Expire end of 2024) next year.
May I know which application form Do I need to fill out and what documents I need to submit?
Please help.
thanks.
regards,

Childeren are Registered as British. Only adults are Naturalised.
Planning to apply for Naturalisation for my wife(ILR Expire end of 2024) next year.
Any reason you don't apply for all of them together?
May I know which application form Do I need to fill out and what documents I need to submit?
Form MN1. The form will tell you what documents you need and it is also detailed in the MN1 guidance notes.

So, kids can apply for British passports directly after the end of the ILR term if one of the parents has a British passport.
Not applying to my wife due to financial issues. So planned to apply by end of this year.
Can you give the link who has the same situation, I will the documents he provided.
thanks for the quick reply.

Nope, that's not what you've been told. Kids need to be registered first. Kids are not British until registered. Only British citizens can apply for a British passport.

Hi, Quick question.
In Letter of Consent, there are three pages
1) Parents consent
2) GUardians consent and address
3) Childs consent
I have signed Page 1 and attached in UKVCAS.
But my question is they mentioned full letter must have full address, but full address in page 2.
Do I need to give address in Page 2 ?
Do I need to get sign from Child on Page 3 ?
Please clarify.
-----------------------------------------------
The letter must:
give their full names and addresses
say that they agree to let you apply for a British citizenship
