ILR kids after acquiring British Citizenship

Post by rd_p » Tue Apr 30, 2019 2:36 pm

I just got my British Citizenship last Jan 2019. I would like to know if my kids can now apply for ILR.

My kids arrived here in UK last 2015 together with my husband under Tier 2 - PBS dependant visa. Since it is still less than 5 years since my husband arrived therefore he is still not eligible to apply for ILR. I am wondering if my kids can now apply for ILR since I am already a British citizen, even though my husband is still under PBS dependant visa.

No they cannot as they follow the immigration path of the less privileged parent. Non UK born children can only get ILR when both parents have ILR. The fact that you are a citizen now is not relevant
