Me and my wife are UK ILR holder for last one year( since April 2015).

Request those members who have gone through similar situation recently and experts on this forum to help me with the forms and list of documents required.

Below are the forms and documents which I am planning to provide for applying for ILR visa for my baby currently in India.

Forms

Please continue in your existing thread, where I have already asked a question for clarity and you have not yet responded. Please don't post your question onto other members topics, it is unfair and creates confusion.

This has no relevance to the other member's thread you've high jacked. Please post this in your own thread.

Does this sticky help?

[SKumarK]

Thanks Secret.Simon.

So the correct application form is https://www.visa4uk.fco.gov.uk/User/Home# and not the one mentioned in my above post.

I hope this will be of help to others who are in same position

We cannot access your link as we don't all have UKVI accounts in our names.

VAF4A is the correct form for your child - child settlement visa.
