Hello. I am after a clarification that I could not find on gov.uk.
I have a Tier 1 Exceptional talent visa. I applied and got the maximum 5 years visa. My spouse and 8-year-old child both got their "dependent" visas, and we all have been living here in the UK. I am now 3 years past the start of my life in the UK and planning on applying for the ILR. I am aware that I can also apply for my child at the same time, while my spouse would have to wait for the 5 years to complete. However, due to the cost (£2,389 per person), I am considering applying for myself first, and applying for my child in a year time. The spouse would then apply a year after when the 5 years threshold is met. I would like to know if applying for my child a year after I have applied for me, would that be of the same or higher difficulty, scrutiny, and requirements compared to if I applied for both of us at the same time?
I look forward to your advice.
Thanks and stay safe.
