The Child Settlement visa leads to the grant of indefinite leave to remain or indefinite leave to enter (ILE) as a child under 18 living abroad and your parent (s) or other relatives are either person and settled in the UK. This visa category also allows the child to be considered for a child visa to enter or remain in the UK indefinitely or leave to remain. This will depend on the status of your parents.
If your application for settlement is successful, you will be granted indefinite leave to enter the UK. Indefinite leave to enter (ILE) is similar to Indefinite leave to remain (ILR) in the UK. If the parent’s immigration status is limited leave to remain, the child or children will be granted leave to remain in line with the parent’s status in the UK.
