You have the risk of them becoming overstayers if your ILR is refused for any reason and in case you need to apply under other category.
Such overstaying period will not matter if your ILR is approved in future for registering them as BC.
2: can we apply for kids citizenship once our ILR approved?
Yes

Stop listening to other stories, you might not know the full details and yes HO can and do write to ask about children especially if children have had dependent visas. All people have to respond is that MN1 under Section 1(3) will be applied once ILR is granted. No big deal!!

There is no 'minimum residence' period for small children.

Your topics have been merged where you have already been given advice, which has not changed.

Thanks CR001,

hi again to all gurus.

i am applying tier1E to ILR in 4-5 weeks time.
Question 1:
is there any problem if we both (me & wife) earning between 1600-1800 a month combine?

she is running her own business and talking only £800 salary as director. She also got dividend of 9000 in 2017.
I am running my own business and taking £850 salary as director, I am main applicant.

question 2:
how much should i write her monthly income?
just 800? or dividend plus monthly income devided by 12 ?

please suggest


thanks in advance.

Income is not a requirement for ILR under Tier 1E, so it is not that important what you earn or write on the form

an other question please.

I visited my home country 5 times in 5 year, every year around 45 days. I wrote the same reason for all visits. Reason "to see my parents"


question:

What evidence will you provide to support the reasons for all absences from the UK and Crown Dependencies?
(Required)
You can select more than one option.

Letter(s) from employer(s) detailing reasons for work-related absences including periods of paid annual leave from the UK and Crown Dependencies

Letter from applicant detailing reasons for absence due to compelling or compassionate reasons

Letter from applicant detailing any exceptionally harsh consequences to them caused by the change in the way absences from the UK are counted

Original official documents: (e.g. medical, birth or death certificates)

Letter from travel companies to evidence disruption to travel

Other
===================

if i am choosing "other" what evidence should i write?

I am only quoting what the changes were in 2015. Let us know if this is accepted by HO.

See Q4 in the link below, ESOL test are no longer accepted since November 2015.

indefinite-leave-to-remain/faqs-english ... 93792.html
Q4: I am not exempt and do not hold a degree taught or researched in English. How do I go about fulfilling the requirement on the basis of an English qualification?

You can prove your knowledge of English by having an English level B1, B2, C1 or C2 level qualification on one of the Home Office’s lists of recognised English tests and qualifications. You must take the test at an approved test centre.

ESOL qualifications are no longer accepted as proof for settlement and citizenship applications.
