I don't think your advice is correct. On this forum , I have raised this question many times. All the senior moderators(@Amber) have advised that single parent with ILR or British PP can claim child benefits regardless of Child's or partners public funds status ( NRPF). They further confirmed that's...

So in my opinion, long residence is not an option. Thank you for reply. I'm not blaming anyone but I know my solicitors knew this issue f...
