Re: English Language B1 Validity for Naturalisation application

If you provided the English test for ILR then you can rely on that fact (chose the correct option on the form) - the validity of the test certificate in that case is not relevant.

Re: Apply for family after BC

I have no experience of family visas but I think the principle is whether you are able to sponsor family members (including financial requirements) and the family members can be sponsored. Not sure that UKVI will delve into the relationship over time - you'll have to provide documents of course show...

What counts as the date of application when using the online form? Is it the date you pay and submit, or the date of biometrics appointment or something else?

Re: Travel after Brexit

Note that "EU Settled Status" is a UK immigration status - a British citizen is not under immigration control and therefore can't hold any immigration status. You should be able to use your ID card to leave the UK and as you say it's valid for travel within the EU. On your return presenting your ID ...

Being in debt in itself is not a reason for refusal - what's important is that you comply with any arrangements, payment plans, etc. as agreed with your creditors or the court judgment (if any). CCJs need to be disclosed if you have one. Please refer to the guidance document used by UKVI caseworkers...

If I recall correctly the biometrics fee is £19.20 for any application so that seems to be the difference.

Congrats for the new arrival!

Settled Status is a UK immigration status (no longer based on EU Treaty Rights regulations) - it is on residency basis, irrespective whether you work, what you work, or not.

And of course new baby is British - go straight for the passport!
