Hello Friends,

I am due for second Tier 1 extension in January, as I arrived 3 months late in UK.
I will be due for ILR in April.

I have a UK born child who has Tier 1 visa which is running out with my mine. I got her the visa previously since we had to travel.
However, now we don't have any plans to travel until my ILR comes through.

I understand that if the child is born in the UK, he/she doesn't need a leave to remain. But in my case, she already has a Tier 1 visa and a BRP.
But in this case, do I need to apply for her extension along with mine, or can I wait till the ILR and get her British passport straightaway at that time.

I don't mind extending it if there is a legal obligation to do so and if it will cause any confusion with my ILR application four months down the line.

Also, could somebody point me to a link on UKBA website where this has been explained?

I would appreciate any help on this matter.

Thanks
Abhishek Jain.

As with the other thread you have seen, there is no need to apply for the extension.

Thanks Riz and Victoria,

That was very helpful.

I am going for the PEO application next week. Keeping my fingers crossed. Is there anything else that I should keep in mind.
Is it worth mentioning about my daughter's case in my cover letter, telling them why I am not applying for her extension?

Thanks,
Abhi.

No. It's nothing to do with them.

Ok. Thanks again Victoria. :-)
