I have just got my ILR on 19th December & my wife extension as my dependent for another 3 years (she qualifies for ILR in 3 years time).
I have got a 2 year old boy who was born in UK. His dependant visa expires on 14th Jan 2015.
Will really appreciate if someone can answer the following questions.
1) Can I apply for British Citizenship for my baby now given that I have got an ILR. I am getting confusing messages now that both parents need to have an ILR before I can apply for my baby nationality?
2) If my baby does qualify for British Citizenship now - under what section of the British Nationality Act 1981 under would his application be considered?
3) I have not received my BRP card yet - would letter of ILR approval suffice for me to make an application.
4) If I have to wait for BRP & this does not arrive before 14th Jan 2015. Would he be classified as an overstayer? Would this be an issue when I make the application.
Many Thanks in advance for all your help
