T1E to ILR plus dependents

[Rafeeq1144]

Thanks CR001, its clear now.

An other query for experts

i am planing to apply just for me and my wife. I have 2 kids born here and they already have same leave remain as parents. I am not applying for them as once we get ILR we will apply for their citizan ship.


Please if anyone can share format/wording of letter we can send with our application so we can avoid home office letter of explanation about kids.


Kind Regards

[CR001]

There is no 'template' letter and you don't have to inform HO when you apply for ILR about the kids, but no harm in doing so. HO might still write to you and ask so they have an official paper trail, then reply simply by stating that you plan on Registering your 2 UK born children as British Citizens under Section 1(3) of the British Nationality Act once your/spouse ILR is granted.

If the child has valid leave to remain for another 8 months , do they still ask the same ? Or they only ask when child become over stayer during parents application ? Any previous case have you heard on this ? Please share

Thanks

Yes, they will likely still ask. It all has to do with child protection and safeguarding children etc. Small children (under 10) do not have to meet the good character requirement and therefore any period of no visa is irrelevant to their citizenship application as they have an entitlement to register.

Please post your MN1 citizenship application questions in the British Citizenship sub forum. ILR sub forum is not the correct place for citizenship questions.

[Rafhasshah]

can you please tell me in how much time you got your response of your ILR.

[Rafeeq1144]

can you please tell me in how much time you got your response of your ILR.

4 month

please check time line topic for all details

[bajo85]

Stop listening to other stories, you might not know the full details and yes HO can and do write to ask about children especially if children have had dependent visas. All people have to respond is that MN1 under Section 1(3) will be applied once ILR is granted. No big deal!!

There is no 'minimum residence' period for small children.

Your topics have been merged where you have already been given advice, which has not changed.

Dear moderator CR001

I am applying in Feb. 19 for ILR without my family who got leave to remain until Sep. 19 as tier 1 (Entrepreneur) dependants. Not applying for wife and children because they will be travelling abroad for holidays in April and July.

I just saw your comment/advice to a forum member “All people have to respond is that MN1 under Section 1(3) will be applied once ILR is granted”. This point is helpful for me, please elaborate this point, I know nothing about it. Your explanation would help me in writing explanatory covering letter.

I am thinking about writing a covering letter with the application explaining why my dependants are not applying with me.

I’ll be highly obliged to you.
