Hi
I am on Tier1 General and applying for ILR in Dec 2013. My wife and 18 month daughter(born abroad) joined me in 2011.
Is the child eligible for nationality after i get the ILR alongwith my wife. As i intend not to apply ILR for her if she is eligible for nationality directly, after my status changes to ILR.
Any help is much appreciated.

No, because she was born abroad before you received ILR. If she was born in UK, then you could register her as a BC and skip ILR.
