hi,
I am planning to apply for ILR at end of October. I came in November 2008. My wife joined me in Feb 2009.
My wife is away for almost 6 months during last year and might need to travel for a month due to emergency. So may be back just before application.
Will there be any concern regarding her recent absence?
I looked at some posts but not clear how recent changes (Jun/Jul ) impact this.
Also I have a girl who born in UK ( I got her PBS done valid till Apr 2014 )
Can I skip her in ILR application and straightaway apply for citizenship once we get our ILR?

Absences should be limited and for good reason.
Yes, once you're settled, granted ilr, your child will be entitled to register as British by virtue of section 1(3) BNA on form MN1.

I can see PEO Appointment are available only from 29th Oct. I know now days PEO Appointment is charged with full fees.
Is there any possibility of getting earlier date (cancellation?). Previously I know if you search for few days, you could get earlier date.
Any recent experience?

Few more queries.
1. can't see new forms from 28 October. Anybody has idea?
2. I have taken appointment of 30 October. If I get early appointment, would I be charged for rescheduling?

However between i get ILR and i apply for his naturalization, i am planning to visit India.
My child has valid tier 1 dependent till apr 2014.
1. would that visa will remain valid once parents got ILR?
2. Will there be any concerns travelling to India and coming back to UK on Child being on Tier 1 Dependent and Parents on ILR?

A child born in the UK will be entitled to register (not naturalise) as British by virtue of section 1(3) BNA.
So long as the child has valid leave it should be ok. However, put the application in to register as soon as you are granted ILR.
