Hi,
I was hoping I get some guidance on ILR(settlement) application of an under-18 child with one parent.
I came to the UK under Tier 2 (General) VISA in 2015 with my spouse and child(both as PBS dependents). I am eligible to apply for ILR in July 2020. Last year, my spouse had to migrate from PBS Dependent to Tier 2 (General) due to technical requirements of her job and she has been allotted a Tier 2 (General) VISA for 5 years running till 2024. My child continued to live with me as my dependent under PBS Dependent VISA due to expire with mine.
My questions are -
Is my child eligible to apply for ILR along with my own application?
If no, on what basis can my child stay in the UK as my assumption is you can live in the UK under PBS Dependent VISA for a maximum period of 6 years?
The reason I am confused is because the gov guidance on ILR mentions both parents need to be settled in the UK or applying to settle for a child to be eligible to apply.
Thanks..
