Hi All,
Thanks for looking into this post and responses.
I am a british citizen from April 2014.
My wife and daughter was with me all time except between (Feburary 2013- January 2014). Both my wife and daughter is currently on ILR status.
Both returned from India on January 2014 and is now staying with me. I have not applied for citizenship for either of them yet.
This post is regarding applying for british citizenship for my daughter.
Is she eligble right away for applying ? or she has to wait for a period where she is not out of uk for more than 450 days ?
Any reply in this regard is highly appreciated.

It depends on what basis she will be applying. I am guessing she will be applying for Registration using MN1, if so then she can apply immediately as there is no holiday restriction for MN1.

Where was your daughter born? Was she born in the UK or in India?
