Child dependent visa and ILR question

[suyasht]

question: One parent is a British citizen (through a Skilled Worker visa and ILR), and the other parent is planning to apply for ILR through the long residence route (with the current visa being a Skilled Worker visa). The child, who was born outside the UK(complete her 10 years in uk on nov 2027), is currently on a dependent visa under the father’s Skilled Worker visa. As the father can apply for ILR and citizenship(as wife is british so do not need to wait for a year), can the child also has to apply for ILR or can wait and apply citizenship directly without ILR (as both parent become a british )?

question 2: One parent is a British citizen, and the other is planning to apply for ILR through the long residence route. The child, born outside the UK, is currently on a Skilled Worker dependent visa. Since the father can apply for ILR and citizenship, can the child continue on the dependent visa until it expires in December 2027?

[CR001]

The child can apply for ILR on form SET F once the father gets ILR, no need to wait till end of next year.

Child needs ILR before they can apply for citizenship.
