Hi guys,
I have been trying to find the relevant rules to help answer the following but to no avail. I would be grateful if you can answer the following and refer to the right source for it please.
I am a British citizen (naturalised in 2018, after 5 years on Tier 2). I have one child born in 2020 who is British by birth. My other child is not British and was born abroad. I was on Tier 2 when my child was born (all the rules I have seen so far talk about children born abroad when one of the parent had british citizenship at the time of birth- this does not apply to our case). My wife and my child came to UK to live with me as Tier 2 dependent from summers 2016 and I can apply for ILR for my wife and son in July 2021, and then immediately apply for citizenship. My question has to do with my child's application.
As far as I have understood, I will need to apply for ILR for my child too, is that correct? (can I not just apply for ILR for my wife and in parallel register my child as British? )
The citizenship that my child will get, will it be citizenship by descent or citizenship otherwise than by descent ?
Thanks for your answer!
