Probably not possible without the ILR holder being present in the UK. However, it's better for his UK-born son to register as a British citizen.

For himself or for his son? Note that an adult applies for naturalisation. A child applies for registration.

i mean if my friend send back his passport and Biometric card to UK to assist his son application for ILR will it possible that his son can go with grandmother and solicitor along with father passport.

As at the Home Office solicitor can send back clients and case worker normally don't come to see applicants themselves and after biometric they themself ask solicitor that their client are free to go.

please advice

There's no need to shout.

There's probably no point in applying for his son's ILR. It will simply cease to exist once the holder becomes a British citizen (46).

Sorry I didn't mean to shout .
What I under stand if the application for register as British is pending then his son's ILR application will cease existing application and he needs to make new application for son to register as British in other words he can't make 2 Applications same time ???
Am I right

If an ILR holder is granted British citizenship, then the ILR will cease (46).

Sir
If child apply for ILR will it make any difference to his registration application as British which is still in progress

Yes. An ILR application makes no difference to child's entitlement.
