Hey, hope someone can help me. I applied in sept 2012 on the basis of being a parent of a child in the UK, in Oct 2013 I was denied with right to appeal, so I've sent off an appeal about a week after that letter. They never took the fee out, and I did seek advice on here perhaps in December and ...

Hi everyone, I haven't been on this for a while. I was denied at the end of September with right to appeal. I sent off my appeal and have heard no correspondence. To those who have appealed how quickly did you have correspondence and how quickly did they take money out for the fee? it would be just ...

Hatsuku I cannot believe it would take that long to get a hearing!! Best of luck for you though.
Makes me want to just forget about an appeal!! I'm so fed up with waiting and its a joke that all of us have been waiting so long.

thanks for you support everyone. the reasons in which i was denied was firstly that i owe the NHS over £1000 which my husband has been paying off every week. the debt is for the birth of our british son. other reasons were because i was a visitor at the time of applying (which i know is a no no) but ...

Just found out I've been denied, I applied on the basis of a child in the UK. Haven't read the paperwork yet so I don't know the actual reason for it yet. But I have been in the UK for a year and a half, a year of that waiting on my application. My british husband supports me and our son who was ...

Hi everyone, I'm meeting with my MP today and am a bit lost as to what to say... I have all my relevant paperwork to bring. I received a response to my complaint letter a few weeks ago which was quite generic but said I should hear from them about my application by the end of October... But wasn't a ...

No I did not use solicitor but it was the ukba who told me to apply this route.

For the spouse ones your spouse would have to make 18k a year though wouldn't they? I think that's subject to change now.

But yes my son and husband are both British.(well my son has dual citizenship)

I applied on the basis of parent of a child in the UK. And yes we are still together. And we were married before I came here

Hi everyone, just wanted to let everyone know that I received a response to my complaint letter. And they apologised for long delay times and what not but they also said that family claims were divided into 4 categories 1. Spouse/partner claims 2. Non pbs work routes 3. Visitors and 4. Human rights ...

In 2 days i will have been waiting 11 months.I don't know if I can manage to wait an entire year. I am going due to get a response from my complaint letter 19 Aug (we'll see how that goes) and I've began to get in contact with my MP. Seems like no ones posted with any decisions past few days...

Congrats sanny and everyone else who got granted! I am soooo tired of waiting. I feel like I can't get on with my life cause I've been waiting for a decision. My son is over a year old yet and I haven't been able to take him back to America to meet my family! I can't work, I can't travel, and can't ...

Hi all, just called the UKBA for an update. The guy said it was still not complete and to just keep waiting. I've been waiting 10 months now. For(o) app based on parent of a child in UK. App received 10 sept 2012 Bio done 20 Feb 2013 And still waiting. I know its expensive to ring the UKBA but I've ...

Sanny let me know how your appointment with the mp goes. I am thinking of contacting mine soon.

Are you meant to contact your mp before an ombudsman?

Sanny, what does that action entail?? Keep us updated on how that goes.

Hi everyone.... I've been posting on here every once in a while... I've been waiting 9 months today. App received by ukba- 10/9/2012 Biometrics done 18/2/2013 Still nothing. I usually ring them up every month since I reached the 6 month mark of waiting. They have told me they hope to complete apps ...

I've just called the ukba to check up on my application. The woman said basically what she was told to say which was "that they have reprioritized and that they aim to have for(o) apps (and I assume similar types) completed by the end of summer." So we'll see how that pans out. App received - 10 ...

(also i read that you said you're not eligible for any public funds, what about the NHS?) Applied : 10 sept 2012 Biometrics done : 17 feb 2013 (i'm ...

Babatha, my application is over 6 months, and i did call to get a hold of them, all they told me is that they cannot give me any time estimate since they are so behind. was pretty much useless. if you call and find out anything new, let us know. i also did ask them if it was true that they were ...
