Dear Sirs,

Good evening, I am due to apply for indefinite leave to remain in 3 months time which is through entrepreneur visa 5 year period
I am expecting my baby in few week and planning to give birth in USA so my question is, assuming my baby would have USA passport , how does her UK visa works out

If child is born after the date of your grant of ILR
- if child is born in the UK
- - child will be born a British citizen
- if child is born abroad
- - child will have the same immigration status as that of the less-privileged parent.

If child is born before the date of your grant of ILR
- if child is born in the UK
- - child will be entitled (i.e. cannot be refused) to be registered as a British citizen
- if child is born abroad
- - child will have the same immigration status as that of the less-privileged parent.

So, what is the UK immigration status of the other parent?

Dear Simon,
Much appreciated your response, my husband is my dependent and been in this country only 3.5 years ago
w.r.t your suggestion, birth is more imminent before I apply for ilr so assuming child would have USA passport, she can stay 6 months. So how I am suppose to move forward from there?

Baby will need to apply for the same visa category as the other parent, Tier 1 Dependent.

Why do you not want to have the baby in the UK?? You would then be able to register the child as British once you get ILR.
