Hi

Just wanted to know that i am british citizen by naturalization , my wife and two children under 12 years of age
just got dependent visas today from PAK and further there applications were submitted on 29 June 2012 that is before the new laws came to effect.

so just wanted to know that can i apply for British citizen for my children as soon as they arrive in UK or have to apply for ILR for my children upon there arrival in UK,

Cheers Azra

You can apply for your children but it is discretionary.

Thanks Victoria for helping again , so you meant i should apply their ILR or British Citizenship,as you replied that one of them i assume is discretionary or you meant both are discretionary can be applied, further they both were born in Pak if that helps

Thanks again

Naturalisation is discretionary. They should have been given indefinite leave to enter.

I agree victoria they should have been given ILE, its was clearly requested on Cover letter underlined as well so that UKBA Team may see it clearly as you know some of their officer at not aware of ILE though its clearly written on the website some where, anyhow as of now what i understand from your reply i can surely apply for their ILR as they arrive in UK, and as Nationality is discretionary so would rather wait a year after their ILR

As of now I wish I would apply their ILR and request for Nationality on cover letter , ba I assume ILR and Nationality forms are different with different fees too

Thanks again victoria

They are.

I wouldn't pay for a new ILR, I'd write to the UKBA stating this was an error and asking them to issue ILE for free.

In reply to your recent post as you said They are. I wouldn't pay for a new ILR, I'd write to the UKBA stating this was an error and asking them to issue ILE for free.

and then you adviced IT is better to send it to the UKBA once they are here.

Thats fine with me Victoria we can persue it in new year, further will UKBA accept your letter for a free ILE once they are here in UK as of their mistake as of what i remember ILE is meant for those who are outside UK and once they come in UK they get ILR please correct me if I am wrong.

Will they actually oblige their mistake and give ILR as there would be no logic of ILE once they are in UK , hope UKBA wont come back and say that you should have applied this from Pak and now you have to fill Set F if ILR is required

Thanks Victoria , hope i have raised a logical and interesting query

That should a letter to be send to UKBA Islamabad now mentioning there mistake in giving dependent visa to my children along with the letter they send with the visa pack that mentioning if there are any mistakes in the visa please let us know.

Further will UKBA accept any letter for a free ILE once my children are here in UK as of their mistake as of what i remember ILE is meant for those who are outside UK and once they come in UK they get ILR please correct me if I am wrong.
