If your daughter was born in pakistab then she cannot get British passport or ILR, you should have given birth to get in the UK.

If not born in UK they will need to come under dependent visa and follow the dependants route to ILR and then citiZenship after 5 years of residency.

Had the child been born in the UK, you could have registered her right away.

As your daughter was born abroad before you got British citizenship, her status would be in line with your wife's.

So, she would be on the same dependant visa as your wife and when your wife becomes eligible for ILR, so will your daughter. Your daughter can be registered under Section 3(1) when your wife becomes a citizen.
