You cannot switch to other visa categories if you are in the UK on a visit visa nor can you apply for ILR for them.The British citizen by descent parent must have lived in the UK (or, if the child was
born on or after 21 May 2002, in a British overseas territory) for a continuous
period of 3 years at any time before the child’s birth.
Non-visa nationals get a 'virtual auto-visa' on entry, so they do have a 'visa', just you never see it.jdhill wrote:With section 3 (2) that would make them 'British by descent' only.
Keen to make them 'British other than by descent', so they don't have this problem.
I think they're not actually on any visa, as they came in as visitors. From what I've read i think they're able to apply for 'family of a settled person visas'. generally confused.
Cheaper than an overnight stay on a ward after visiting A&E. There is a Brit on an expat forum who has had to pay a just over 1k NHS bill for her US child who entered the UK as a US visitor. The 50% was added to the bill for not having insurance.CR001 wrote:
Also, the fee is £956 each for the visa and on top of that, the immigration health surcharge will be payable at £600 per child.
When section 55 and the principles derived from Zambrano are put into the equation, it is unlikely that such application will be rejected for the reasons you mentioned, but I agree that it is worth noting nevertheless.vinny wrote:Child with limited leave may apply for SET(F) under A280(b), 298, 299. However, visitors should declare their change of circumstances.
