Kids ILR for continuous 7 years in School

Post by nileshz » Sun Dec 17, 2023 3:43 pm

Hi,

My Daughter has completed continuous 7 years in UK (and in School as well). I have also completed 7 year in UK. I have heard that she can apply for ILR based on 7 years. She is currently 11 years old. Could you please confirm is it possible to get ILR for her?

Why (on what visa) are you both in the UK?

Kids of migrants are expected to leave with them, see post2133422.html#p2133422

She doesnt qualify for ilr if she is on a skilled worker dependnet visa.

The route you are thinking of is for children who hold the private life visa, a totally different visa category or for children who were born in the uk and lived for here for 7 years.

No as she is not under private life route: indefinite-leave-to-remain/7-year-child ... l#p2129773

Yes, definitely you can. You are eligible to apply ILR for your child.

This is incorrect. Skilled worker dependants cannot get ILR under private life rules
