Application Declaration

[habeeb05]

Hi,

I am completing the MN1 form for my daughter (DOB: 09/2020).

As she was born last year I didnt apply for her passport from Sri Lanka as I wanted to apply for her naturilisation directly. As such she has no official identification from any country at the moment. She only has a UK birth certificate and Sri Lankan birth certificate.

As such when filling the form online i did say that she has no official ID documents and when the application asked for a reason I did say "She was born in the UK in 2020 and has not had any identification document. A UK birth certificate can be provided". Is this okay?

Even when I said this at the end in the documents section it tells me "If she does not have a passport then you must provide another officially-issued identity document. This could include an official travel document or national identity card." What can I provide here if she has nothing?

Lastly, for the referees, it says to provide "referee declarations". What is this?

Thanks in advance for your assistance!

I think the UK birth certificate is acceptable, required anyway - note the question says "it could include...".

Hi,

I am completing the MN1 form for my daughter (1 year old) and at the end there is a declaration to confirm either

"I am the applicant"

or

"I am a representative of the applicant and have been authorised to act on their behalf and have discussed and confirmed the contents of this application with them".

I think I should be selecting the "I am the applicant" am I correct? Or is it the second option? My understanding is you choose the second option if you have a lawyer representing the application etc. (which i dont).

Any help would be much appreciated!
