non-UK born child citizenship post ILR if one parent is British
Posted: Tue Sep 03, 2024 4:17 pm
Hi,
My wife is already British citizen since 2021 and I'm now applying for ILR along with my child (non-UK born) in the month of Nov'24 after serving 5 years on dependant visa (Tier2 general route).
Query -
I'm told that I can apply for naturalisation certificate immediately as soon as I receive ILR since wife is already British. Will my child be also eligible to apply for naturalisation -
a) immediately after ILR along with myself or
b) once I have received my naturalisation (so that both parents are now British) or
c) needs to wait for 12 months post ILR?
Thanks
