Child Benefits and Tax Credits for ILR holder

[rza22]

In a family (living at the same address) where:
(1) Main applicant has got ILR from T2 General, (2) Wife and Child-1 have applied for ILR from T2 dependent and the applications are under process, (3) UK born Child-2 has applied for British Citizenship and the application is under process.

Can the main applicant claim for Child Benefit and Tax Credits for both Childs?

Will this have any implication on the British Citizenship application of the main applicant, wife and child1 in future?

Although that sticky started off as just about the Universal Credit welfare benefit (that's why it has that title) it now includes linlks about claiming other welfare benefit and about claiming when a partner or child is No Recourse to Public Funds.
