Child with ILR born outside the UK - Route to Citizenship?

Dear All

I need help with my Child Registration/Citizenship application. Any help will be much appreciated.

I am applying for my Child citizenship. She is under 18 and was born outside the UK. She has received her ILR, Mother has ILR too. But I dont know which route to follow to register her as a British Citizen. Her mother isnt rady for her Citizenship application yet, as she has to sit for B1 and Life In the UK Test. I thought a child can apply for registration if he or she has ILR, but I think I was wrong, as I dont see any option in the MNI Form. In such a scenario, a child can only apply if one of the parents is also applying for a citizenship?

I would very much appreciate for any useful information regarding the matter.

Thanks

If you are British and rhe mother has ILR, then you can apply for the child on form MN1. The option you select is "Other" at the bottom of the list of options on route to register a child.

Thanks for the response.

None of the parents are British, but both have ILR. Is there any other route to registration of a child, where Child has ILR.

Regards

You can only apply for the children when you apply for yours
