Child settlement- to join british citizen parents in UK

Post by AngeloGabe » Sat Jun 13, 2015 11:38 am

Hi guys!.. Good Morning.Am just a new member on this forum. I would like to seek help and assistance in this matter. i got my British citizenship since 2009 under the work permit category and my wife is currently waiting for her application for citizenship to be approved, she got her "spouse visa" since january 2012,were both happily married since 1999. Were both planning to apply this coming november for our 2 boys ages 15&14, there both under my mother in law guardianship.The application forms that ill be filling up are VAF4A / Appendix 1 / and sponsorship undertakin, do i need to fill up the financial requirement as well? Am i right in understanding what ive read in UK visa and immigration website?. Can i apply for them using the online application under my account on visa immigration website in UK.? i spoke to an immigration firm and theyre are charging me £900 per application. its a bit expensive. Can anybody assist me in this matter. Can someone could help me to fill up the correct forms? I would be a great help.. Thank you. :D

Both children may apply to join parents. They may grant child ILE if the requirements of A277, A280(b), 297, etc., are met.

Adequate maintenance and accommodation, etc., required.

I believe the Immigration Heath Surcharge should not apply.

Vinny

Given that both parents would be British citizens and that their children are both minors, can they not apply directly for citizenship via registration under Section 3(1), followed by a passport application from overseas?

I think that they also expect the child to be in the UK with indefinite leave.
