I don`t think dependants can be included under an ILR application based on the 10 year rule..I think you`ll have to qualify on your own accord.
Yes. that's true. Your mum will have to simultaneously submit a spouse visa (and if being done by post, enclose a covering letter) and add you as a dependent. Your brother can be registered british straight after your dad gets ILR.

Well, your mum doesn't "have" to apply for a spouse visa. That is one way to get your ILR. When did you arrive in the country?

I didn't know that this was possible (just thinking) but the SV had to be applied for after ILR have been approved for dad. With your suggestion, mom has to include a fee for her application but that would cover the dependant isn't it?
I am due for my shortly and I was thinking of doing the wife's own after ILR has been granted.
Praise The Lord!!!!

Yeah, both mom and hypegal have continuing leave so they don't need to do a simultaneous application.

The problem is that 10-year ILR don't allow dependents. So, they can each apply for ILR (3x ILR fees) or (2x ILR + 1x spouse).
