Dependant child uk born british citizenship query

Post by Rashi1990 » Thu Dec 28, 2023 1:32 pm

Hi Admin team,

My child is born in UK in June 2019. We are from india. Been on ICT visa first and switched to skilled worker visa 2 years ago. We want to know when we can apply for our child's ILR? . Can we apply for my child before we both are eligible in 10 years route for ILR?
A friend told we can directly apply for the child after 7 years. Kindly help.

What exactly are you asking?

Your topic subject says british citizenship and your test you wrote asks about ilr. They are two completely different processes and rules.

Apologies for confusion.

Can my child apply for UK ILR before we are eligible for ILR in long 10 year route. If so after how many years

Does the child currently hold a dependent visa?

Note that a uk born child does not need ilr if you intend to register them as british.

So according to the link you shared, can I apply after the child turns 7 years old?

How to register the child as british? Any link or form pls?
