There are some options. I think that to some extent this reflects the fact that individuals' needs should be compared. A choice must be made between permanent residency and citizenship by direct grant. This is one of the things parents have to think about. They have to think about what is best in the short and long term.
The procedure for obtaining permanent residency is complicated. However, children do not have to wait three years before they receive permanent residency. So parents have to think about it before they decide which option to choose.
