Urgent advice for naturalisation application

[sand1]

Hi Dear all
I have a querry regarding applying for naturalisaion if my two sons and my wife could apply for naturalization before myself?
They are my dependents and we have already got ILR over the last one year.
I would like to retain my ILR at this stage not opting to apply for naturalisation but would like to apply for my wife and sons to get naturalised and get British passport.
Please advice.

If they meet the requirements then they can apply. There is no "dependent citizenship" application, each person applying must meet the requirements individually.

Once your dependents have ILR they are no longer "dependents" for immigration purposes.

Thank you very much for your reply.
But they have mentioned in the guidance :

Registration at the Home Secretary’s discretion – Section 3(1)
application
Children born abroad to parents who are applying for British citizenship
Where one or both parents are applying for British citizenship they may apply for one
or more children who are not automatically British at birth (see “Automatic acquisition
of British citizenship” above) to be registered as British citizens as part of a “family
application”. Children in this category will be considered at the Home Secretary’s
discretion and will usually be registered only if both the parents are granted or already
hold British citizenship, or if one parent holds British citizenship and the other is
settled in the UK.

They have mentioned about at least one of the parents holding citizenship already and the other might be holding ILR. ?Isnt it?
Many many thanks for your reply.

I have actually married second time and divorced my first wife around 17 years ago before my second marriage took place around 13 years back.
I dont have any record of my first marriage( divorce certificate or marriage documents) as it lasted for few months abroad, when I was a student.
Now I have been in UK for 6 years along with my children and my wife (by law second wife).All of us have ILR and now in process of applying for Naturalization.
In the form AN should I be mentioning the fact that I remained married before this and got separated?
Do I need to provide any evidence ?
Or should I just leave it blank?
Are they going to interview about the past ?
Please advice ...
Thank you CR001

You are over thinking this. People marry and divorce, thats life.Why would HO care if you married again after divorce.

Your children can apply at the same time as your wife or after your wife, makes no difference. What they can't do is apply before either of you apply it have citizenship.

Thank you very much CR001
I am so thankful to you for your reply.
Do you think I will need to mention about my previou marrriage in my application form even I dont remember my ex wifes date of birth.
Am I supposed to produce any documentary evidence of the previous marriage and divorce?
Do you think its going to be OK if all od us apply together?
Thank you for your reply .

Read the form and only provide the information that it asks for.

Your previous marriage has NOTHING to do with your current wife's application.
