Child UK registration and spouse naturalisation after ILR while living outside UK

[rafeng]

Hi UK Immig Gurus!!
I and my wife and children (son now aged 11 years & daughters 7-9 years) all got our ILRs in Sep 2022 after completing 5 years in UK. My wife and children moved to home country Pakistan in Oct 2022 after getting ILR (living out of UK for 14 months since ILR) and have plan to stay in Pak for 10 years.
I am living in UK since my ILR and completed 12 months. I am planning to apply for naturalization/citizenship in Dec 2023.
My questions are:
1. Are my children still eligible for uk citizenship/registration despite out of UK for more than 13 months & studying in Pak. If yes, can I apply for my children's registration /citizenship from UK (while they are studying in Pakistan) with both parents consent, before my citizenship application.
2. If not, after I apply and get my citizenship, can I apply for my children registration from UK while they are still living & studying in Pak.. And after they are registered, can they apply for their UK passports from Pakistan.
3. After I apply and get my BC, will my wife (having ILR) be eligible for UK naturalisation/citizenship (despite she spent more than 14 months but assuming less than 2 years, out of UK)? If yes, can she apply for naturalisation from Pakistan and visit UK to attend BC ceremony and get passport after naturalisation.

Will be grateful for an early reply. Thanks

Naturalisation is not an immigration application and has own requirements to be met.
The premise and purpose of the ILR with the "R" meaning Remain being defeated if after a month of the grant everyone your household who got it, upped and left the UK.
Abd now at the earliest opportunity of BC an application is to be made for it. Put yourself in the shoes of CW.

Thanks a lot for a quick response. Yes, you are right, i think although after my BC my wife & kids are eligible for citizenship, however, the HO might consider refusal in terms of intention to remain in UK. So after my BC, if my wife & kids come back to UK (before lapsing 2 years duration of staying out of UK after ILR) and then apply for naturalisation / registration giving good reasons of staying outside of UK after ILR then do you think my wife & children's naturalisation / registration can be refused on the basis of intention to live in UK??

If they don't meet all other requirements, then your UK citizenship isn't going to help them. Example is your wife doesn't meet the residency period by staying outside the UK for more than the acceptable timeframe.

They would have to come back to the UK and your wife would need to wait until she has less than 90 days of absence in the 12 months coming up to the day of the application (as well as respecting all other requirements).
