Hi guys,

A friend of mine has recently been granted ILR along with his partner and 4 children(1 UK born) based on 5 years of WP and tier 2 General.
He had applied through a soliciter. After they had their ILR aproved, his soliciter advised him that he can apply for nationality in few weeks as he has already been in UK for 5 years.
He is not european national so as far I understand, he'll have to wait another 12 months before he can apply. He can register his UK born daughter as BC though. I have asked him to ask his soliciter the reason why he thinks they can apply now.
Am I right in thinking that he has to wait for 12 months or is there any way he can apply for BC now?

Thanks in advance

He and family have to wait 12 months and meet all the requirements. UK born child can be registered on form MN1
