Ensure no-one "ages out" of dependent status during parents' 10-year ILR route

We want all children of those on a long-term visa route to be protected by immigration rules from “aging out” of their child dependant eligibility, due to delays. End what we see as unequal treatment of settled families, and ensure child welfare and family life are properly considered. We are concerned that the current system leads to permanent family separation based solely on timing, not conduct, contribution, or risk, with insufficient assessment of a child’s best interests. We believe this predictable outcome undermines fairness, equality, and confidence in the system.
