They need 5 years residence , then ilr first before they can apply for citizenship.

If you are British at the point when they get ilr, they can apply for citizenship immediately, provided the requirements are met.

Form SET O for ilr, provided you got ilr based on PBS route and not 10 years long residence.

Unfortunately, no, if you are not a qualifying British citizen nor a relevant EEA citizen nor a relevant naturalised citizen.

If eligible, then yes. However, a Tier 1 dependant is probably ineligible.
