Family Reunion: Child of Adult with ILR or Citizenship

This information sheet explains how you can apply to bring your child or close child relative to the UK if you have British citizenship or Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR/Settlement).

A child is your own child (biological or adopted child) who is under 18 years old. A child relative is a child under 18 years old who is in your wider family (e.g. brother, sister, niece, nephew, grandchild and step-child, or another child with whom you have a close relationship with).
