Child of ILR visa holder

[jkdlondon]

Hi All,

I am applying for my wife & 6 Months old daughter's dependent visa with form SET (M) & SET (F) respectively from INDIA and my question is: WHEN I CAN APPLY FOR MY DAUGHTER'S BRITISH PASSPORT? btw she was born in India.

Thanks,

JKD

Incorrect forms - Set(M) and Set(F) can only be used if applying within the UK for ILR.

Does your wife have a vailid UK visa?

HI, My was in UK as a Tier1 dependent from 2007 to 2010. but because i was working on a company project in INDIA she moved to India since 2010 and we had an baby 6 months back.

so currently she doesnt have visa i have to apply for her and baby at the same time.

They will need to apply for entry clearance as the spouse and child of a settled person using form VAF4A.

HI, but my question was, once my wife & daughter will enter UK, when we can apply for British passport for my daughter?

i know my wife has to stay for 5 years in UK before applying for British password. but not sure about child.

What is your status? are you a UK national or someone with a settlement status.

Had you daughter been born when you obtained this status?

HI, I have an ILR since 12/12/2012 and my daughter was born on 10/08/2012.

i have applied for ILR because i became eligible on 12/06/2012 but UKBA didn't issue the visa until 12/12/2012.

You daughter is not a British Citizen and not eligible to apply for registration.

If you proceed to apply for naturalisation, you could add your child to your application.
