You did not have to apply for ILR for your UK born child. Her visa expiry had no impact on her eligibility to register as a BC after your ILR.
You will have to register her as BC via MN1. Once thats approved, she will be able to apply for a British Passport.

Rest of your kids do not qualify for BC. They will qualify when both parents qualify.

You can just write to HO and withdraw her application and request for a refund. Explain that you have to register her as ILR. Hopefully they will acknowledge and refund you the money.

Wait for someone else to confirm the last refund bit I mentioned.

Your UK born child can become British now and she does NOT need ILR. Register her under MN1. You will NOT get a refund if you withdraw ILR
Your other kids can apply for citizenship with you and your spouse next year.

Thanks for your Reply. Zimba, as you mentioned that i cannot get the refund of her ILR Application so what should i do first

1. Should i apply her registration via MN1 and put a cover letter explaining that her ILR application is also pending.

2. or, Should i write home office first explaining the situation and thereafter apply MN1

The reason i am asking i know ILR and Registration are 2 different Departments but i do not want confuse home office with 2 applications.

Please guide

MN1 is NOT an immigration application, it is a nationality application. Go ahead and apply under MN1
