Children born abroad are expected to hold ILR.
How old are the children??
Some have had success, but some have failed.

You should have applied for ILR for the child when the mother applied for ILR.

I haven't applied the ILR for the kid at the time of mother due to cost. You mean only option is to apply for ILR for my daughter there is no way i can apply for her naturalisation directly. ILR is must if that's the case i will apply for her ILR please confirm

If you fail, you lose the fee and if the childs visa has expired, you have a problem.

Her pbs dependent visa is valid till dec 2018. She is 3 year old and will be 4 in May.
So the advice is to apply her ILR rather than naturalisation ?

You know people on this forum don't work for Home Office. CR001 has said to you that "some have had success but some have failed". So, the ball lies in your court. It is up to you to apply with a risk of losing your application fee or not.

As you are British, they can both apply now.

Hi All,
I have got the ILR for my daughter the last week. I just wanted to know whether my 4-year kid who is born in India have to wit for 1 year for citizenship after the ILR. Or she can apply straight away. I am holding the british passport and my wife is still on ILR
