Hi,
I am in the process of naturalising to become a British citizen. Can I also register my daughter who holds an indefinite leave to enter? She was born abroad and only been in the country since Feb 2021

Older children generally require 2 years residence before they can apply for citizenship.
Details are in the MN1 guidance notes for registrations under section 3(1), page 15.
