Hi,
I am on work permit and will complete 5 years on May 26, 2012 (eligible to apply for ILR on April 30th). My wife is on Tier 1 visa valid until July 2012. We have two daughters aged 7 and 3, both dependent on my WP. The elder one US citizen by birth and younger one was born in UK and has Indian passport.
Due to personal and career reasons, we are looking to move to India. As schools in India start in June, we are planning to move back by 3rd week of May.
We are keen to get my ILR done (being so close to it) and also get UK citienship for my younger daughter. Not very keen about BC for me and my wife as we plan to settle down in India.
Here is the plan of action we have thought of -
1. Apply for my ILR on 30th April when I am eligible using PEO same day service.
2. As soon as I get my ILR, apply for my younger daughter's MN1. Since it is unlikely to be received by the time I leave by end of May, provide change of address to one of my friend's place.
3. Once we receive MN1, apply for british passport for my daughter from India.
Welcome comments from seniors on whether this is a feasible plan - specifically if chnge of address is possible for MN1 and can the address for passport be different from MN1.
Also, are we likely to face any problem when we apply for her passport from India, as I would be having a job in India at that time and my wife would not have ILR.
Many thanks.
