Hi everyone,
I have just received my ILR after staying for 3 years on the Global Talent Visa. My wife and children are still on the dependant visa of my previous GTV until 2026. Their BRPs indicated "No Public Fund".
My youngest child was born in the UK two years ago, while my other children were born abroad.
My questions are:
1- Will I be able to claim child benefits for my children now, or do I need to wait until they get their ILR?
2- Can I register my youngest child, born in the UK before I got the ILR, as a British citizen now?
3- If I claim child benefits for all/any of my children now, will that affect my citizen application later?
4- If my income exceeds 50K (my wife does not work), can I claim any other benefits (e.g. UC)?
5- If I can claim UC (or any other benefits) for me and my family members, will that affect my citizen application or theirs?
Many thanks in advance for your help.
