(i) The Points Based System Migrant is the applicant’s sole surviving parent, or
(ii) The Points Based System Migrant parent has and has had sole responsibility for the applicant’s upbringing, or
(iii) there are serious and compelling family or other considerations which would make it desirable not to refuse the application and suitable arrangements have been made for the applicant’s care, or

(h) All arrangements for the child’s care and accommodation in the UK must comply with relevant UK legislation and regulations.

There are no absence criteria for kidsas_711 wrote: ↑Wed Feb 13, 2019 8:40 pmThank so much for swift reply.
But if 2nd parent has excess absence so his /her ILR will be rejected as per rule. What about children as they are within absence policy. Will case worker will reject children ILR also or will be granted ILR under PBS dependent route despite of 2nd parent rejection..
Yes, it is very confusing.as_711 wrote: ↑Sun Feb 17, 2019 9:49 pmThanks sir for your reply. Just one last question as new ILR absence policy is really hurting my case as was not aware of this before. I came to know this change through this Forum only.
• Our first entry in UK was on 10 July 2018 therefore our grant period start from the same date and 5 years will be completed on 9th July 2023.
• However, we want to apply ILR application on 1st October 2023 covering the five year back dated period from 1st October 2023 to 1st October 2018 as during this period my absence is under control (less than 180 days). That also will be before the expiry of Tier-1 extension that likely will be expired on 10th October 2023.
• That’s why I had mentioned in my above post that ILR application will be submitted before the end of extension period. The ILR period will be from 1st October 2018 to 1st Oct 2023 instead of period from 10 July 2018 to 9 July 2023 whereas the extension will likely will be expired on 10th October 2023.
Forwarded for your kind comments if the way of calculation is correct and in case of any issue by adapting/following the above mentioned patron?
I am really sorry for asking such confusing question but will helped me a lot.
Thanks
