Hi I am about to apply for my passport and need your advice on following:

1) Previous passport:

In the section of previous passports, do I need to mention my valid passport only (I mean I have Indian passport which got renewed. Do I need to mention my expired passport number also? And do I need to send my expired passport also along with the renewed one?)

2) Grand parents details:

Since my parents are not UK citizens, I need to give my grand parent details also. So, do I need to mention all the four grand parents (Father parents and Mother parents)? If yes, what should I need to write the relationship (i.e Father's father, Mother's father so on???)?

3) My son born in UK but is on Indian passport. His birth certificate is having two papers. One of them is having only his name. But the second one is having his name along with father and mother name. I assume we need to send second paper. Am I correct?

Thanks in advance.

valid passport only.

2) Grand parents details:

Not required in your case. However, if applying using PO Check&Send service, they might insist you fill in this part also.... In that case, make sure you remember what you wrote as you might be asked on that in the passport identity interview !

3) My son born in UK but is on Indian passport. His birth certificate is having two papers. One of them is having only his name. But the second one is having his name along with father and mother name. I assume we need to send second paper. Am I correct?

I presume this is for your son passport. You should send the long version (the second one with the parents details).

Thanks Jambo

I sent my previous passport as well, 3 in all, the current valid one, lus the ones which have my first UK landing, as well as the 2nd last one which I got my ILR one.


I seem to recall reading somewhere they want to see 1st landing and ILR stamps as well.

You should also send the one showing your first visa to UK, when you entered UK.

2) Grand parents details:

Not required, leave it blank

Yes
