You should start your won topic with your questions instead of tagging onto other members threads.

1000s have applied using the route and there are 100s of topics.

Grandparent details and documents are NOT required for section 3(1) child born abroad applications.

Note the same form is used for many routes, simply ignore things not relevant!!
