ILR for Indian minor child .

Post by Ymsr » Sat Feb 17, 2024 4:11 pm

I am Indian citizen. Married and had a child on 2013. I got ILR on 2014. (I spent 5 years on Uk on tier 1). My kid and wife are in India. They never be in UK . I got ILR extension recently and valid till 2034. . Now my child is 11 years and I am divorced in India. I took my child responsibility.

Now my question is Can I directly apply ILR for my child.

My child born in India 2013. By that time I was in tier 1 visa .

Now i in UK & working on ILR.

You mean you simply renewed the BRP card!! There is no such thing as ILR renewal.
Now my child is 11 years and I am divorced in India. I took my child responsibility.
What do you mean you 'took responsibility'? Who does the child live with everyday and who looks after the child?
Now my question is Can I directly apply ILR for my child.
Depends if you have official documents indicating you have sole responsibility for the child, see link below. Simply providing for the child while the child lives with their mother does not mean you have sole responsibility. Also, if you need the mothers consent to bring the child, then you do not have sole responsibility either.

Bluntly - the sole responsibility claim has no credibility whatsoever. The Home Office will not entertain the idea given the circumstances. It is a very obvious attempt to bring your child to the U.K. where you have not been involved at a personal level for several years.

Have you been given sole custody by the court?

The court can’t give sole responsibility for an absent father who is in another country. And even if that has somehow happened the Home Office won’t wear it.

I was in India from 2016 to 2023 November. I took return resident visa and renewed ILR. These 5 years my child with me and recently divorced . I took sole responsibility of my child .

Do you have legal/Court documents backing your sole responsibility?

Still slim chance with the sole responsibility with legal/judicial backing?

What measures were in place for the care of the child while you were away?
