Hello all,
lately I am in receipt of a British Citizenship certificate. My dependents (wife+kids) are completing their 05 years in end Dec 2024 under PBS global talent dependents. I have few queries.

1) Do they must need ILR or apply directly for BC as dependents of a BC?
2) If required, which application form should they use to apply for ILR?
3) After their ILR is accepted, can they apply for BC straightaway?
4) Any other information required

Thank you.

They all (except children born in the UK) need ILR before applying for British citizenship.

Yes, assuming that they meet the other requirements.

Kids do not have a residence requirement and settle when their parents do. The GTV route is also not part of the PBS system.
They should apply together for ILR using form SET(O) choosing the Tier 1 Dependnat route

Thanks for your reply. Can you also help answering the following?

1. My children are below 13 so can I apply for their naturalization directly without applying for ILR?
2. Does my wife must spend 01 year ILR before she is eligible to apply for naturalization?

Thanks

This is the ILR forum, continue to ask nationality questions in the relevant subforum

1. Kids do NOT naturalise, instead they get registered. Also, non-UK-born children do NOT have any automatic entitlement to British citizenship either. If the kids were born in the UK, they could have been registered as British when you got ILR. You already were advised above that non-UK-born children need ILR before they can be registered but it seems you did not read the advice given.

2. No. The spouse of a British citizen can be naturalised right after getting ILR

Dear forum colleagues

My wife is applying for ILR under 5 yr route and her last visa is global talent dependent. Her first visa entry is as follows

T2 Partner start date: 03/01/2020
entry in UK: 15/01/2020
expiry date of current visa: 20/06/2025

What would be her earliest possible ILR application date (UKVCAS appointment)?
I tired to calculate from online it shows 05/12/2024, is this correct indeed?

Many thanks.

The date of ILR decision must be within 28 days of completing her 5 years or later

Applicants can benefit from the date of the ILR decision

Hello all,

My spouse applied for ILR under GTV dependent Set (O) last year and waiting for the decision. We need to make arrangements very soon for travel overseas. Her dependent evisa expires in June 2025. I have few questions

1) Can she travel? if not what implications.
2) Which email we contact home office to expedite.

Thanks.

An applicant should NOT travel outside the UK after submitting their application online or else the application will be considered automatically withdrawn (as per paragraph 34K of the UK immigration rules). There is no official way to expedite an application
