registration as british citizens IN INDIA under section 1(3)
Posted: Tue Dec 15, 2009 2:58 pm
Hi,
my name is sri. My twin daughters are born in july 2008 in Scotland. At the time of their birth i was on HSMP visa and my wife was on HSMP dependent visa. myself and my wife both got ILR ( settlement) visa in october 2009. so my daughters now are eligible for british citizenship. i would like to register them as british citizens under section 1(3), using MN1 form. my daughters are now in India. they have Indian passports and HSMP dependent visa till aug 2010.( i think their HSMP dependent visa is not valid anymore, as my HSMP visa status changed to ILR).
Please can you clarify these for me.
1) Is MN1 form the right one, to register my daughters as british citizens in india? ( can I post it to delhi from the UK)?
2) are the referees needed ( and who is eligible to give reference in india - ?doctor/lawyer/ relative)?
3) can I make an appointment to go in person for applying this at delhi - if so can i ring to make an appointment?
4) can I submit the application in hyderabad (at british trade office)?
any advise regarding this is highly appreciated.
thanking you
kind regards
