Re: Options available to keep my children in the UK

Did the original ILR state 'Indefinite leave to ENTER'?? I have just checked, and it was "CERTIFICATE OF ENT TO RIGHT OF ABODE", not ILR. Thanks for pointing this out.

Re: Options available to keep my children in the UK

I guess reading this thread here has got me concerned https://www.immigrationboards.com/british-citizenship/mn1-section-3-5-parents-citizenship-requirement-t58628.html My understanding is that 3(5) is based on the premise that the parent was British at the time of the child's birth.
