UK born children born to non-settled, non-British, parents will be entitled to register after a parent is granted ILR.“ the Islands ” means the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man;
“ the United Kingdom ” means Great Britain, Northern Ireland and the Islands, taken together;
If you are British by the time your wife gets ILR, she can apply for Naturalisation straight away without waiting 1 year on ILR. Otherwise she will have to wait 1 year after ILR.absra wrote: ↑Sun Mar 14, 2021 1:54 pmThanks all.
Seems like my employer will bear costs of ILR, but only 3 months prior to the current visa expiry, which is a year after we will be eligible.
So one last question, if my wife applies for ILR 9 months after I do, can we both apply for naturalisation together? Or will her 12 months start after she acquires ILR?
To clarify further on this statement, you only become a British citizen after attending the citizenship ceremony and being issued the naturalisation certificate. The letter of approval from the Home Office does not confer British citizenship.
No. The costs of registration of children as British citizens are irrespective of whether they have ILR or not.
