Is she classified as dependant or on a settlement route and do you think how much it is now?

another thing is, her husband got a child on previous marriage i think around 10 yrs old now, is it possible for them to get the child too. the problem is the husband don't have a regular contact to the child who is living with his grandparents and he is not supporting the child either and her ex wife got her own family now as well.
the 3 1/2yr old was born in the uk ? and the mother has at least ILR ?
if so i think the child can be registered as british at the british embassy.

as for the other child i doubt it, no sole responsibility or custody of the child
