Cert of Entitlement - applying after passport/RoE expiry
Posted: Sun Mar 17, 2024 3:42 am
Hello,
I'm going through the online application for my son's Certificate of Entitlement from China. He had one in his now expired passport.
I am submitting scans of (as required):
* his current passport
* letter of consent from me and my wife for him to travel, and his grandmother in England as proof of address during the stay.
I also have uploaded copies of:
* his (+ translated) and my (British father) birth certificates,
* his expired passport (RoE vignette page),
even though they are not shown in the documents checklist but do provide evidence of previous successful application and relationships.
The stay will be about a month so no TB test required according to what I understand of the TB requirements.
I think that last time we sent lots of other documents: bank statements, my degree, and other things, but they are not being showed as required in this application form nor the documents checklist, and the guidance link from the application form links to UK-based applicants information. The application five years ago also had entries for relatives addresses, but that has gone.
Are those other documents about finance and my education necessary since it is my son's application as his birthright?
My wife has ILR, but I think that submitting her ILR would not have any influence on a decision. Is that right?
Thank you.
