child over 18

Hi everyone. I'm a new member on this forum and I need some answers. I'm eligible to apply for ILR in November this year. I will have two dependants, my husband and my daughter. However, the question is about my son, he is 24 years old and never been in UK. Is any way how he can come here to live with us, whether as my dependent or? Thank you

Not as your dependent, but he could look at other options such as student or work visa categories.

What about after we apply for UK passports and hopefully all goes well, any chance for my son to be eligible to come without the hassle of student/work visas? Thank you

Nope, 'fraid not, UK deem anyone over 18 to be leading an independent life.

Even as a UK citizen and UK passport holder, I won't be able to provide my own son with the relevant documents and to be able to join us? We will be separated family for ever? Will it be any help for his application for either student or work visa that the rest of his family have ILR or will make the things more complicated? Thank you

It won't complicate his application for a student or work visa, but it won't increase his chances. He will still need to meet all the relevant criteria. As Wanderer has said, the Home Office consider anyone over 18 to be able to live independently of family.

No - you can go back to your home country to join him. That's the crux, you have a choice, many don't. It's just a question of how you rank your priorities, it's not within the remit of the immigration authorities to judge it for you, they just provide the framework.

Thank you all
