Why was this petition rejected?
It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. Children of British citizens may already be eligible for ILR or citizenship.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly in what circumstances what you would like the Government or Parliament to grant ILR, for example which circumstances are not already covered by the law.We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
