Hi Dear,

I have few questions regarding my ILR application and any help will be highly appreciated...!!

Me and my wife are planning to submit our ILR application on 9th June 2021 online and there are few questions in the applications that are confusing or not sure how to answer:

1. At any time have you ever had any of the following, in the UK or in another country?

I was give a PCN in October 2018 for over speeding in post. I paid the £100 fine and accepted 3 penalty points on License. Reading different forums it seems if you have not gone to court for the fine then there is no need to disclose it in your ILR application as it was not a conviction.

2. Do you or anyone else who is part of this application receive any public funds?

My wife (on dependent Visa) lost her job during Pandemic and is receiving Jobseeker Allowance basis her 2 years NI contribution. Reading different forums it seems that Jobseeker's allowance is not considered a public fund if it basis your NI contribution and there is no need to disclose it in the application.

3. Time for 5yrs Calculation

My wife entered few days after me into UK on Tier 2 Dependent Visa. Our both Entry clearance is valid from 7th July 2016 and she entered UK on 22nd July 2016 (10days after me) and her BRP is valid from 19th July. So is it safe to calculate her 5yrs from 7th July 2016.

4. Moving house during application

My landlord has served me notice to leave by June end 2021. I am planning to submit my application by 9th June on priority service to receive decision in 5 days. Is it advisable to move house while ILR application is in process just incase application gets delayed for any reason.

5. Last question: If you have marriage certificate, do you need proof of cohabitation ?

Kindly help.
Thanks Very Much

1. PCNs do not need to be declared
2. Contribution-based jobseeker’s allowance is NOT part of the public funds.
3. Use the visa issue date
4. You will simply report an address change to UKVI: https://visa-address-update.service.gov.uk/

Many thanks and highly appreciate the quick response.

Could you please help with questions no. 5 aswell ?

Thanks

You need to provide 2 years evidence of cohabitation.

Many thanks..!!

I have a valid marriage certificate.

Do I still need to provide 2yrs cohabitation proof ?

Yes, you still need evidence of cohabitation for the last two years in both your names.

Thank you very much Dear...!!

Dear Moderator,

I have few more questions regarding ILR documentation:

1. My company has issued me a support letter with annual salary, sort code, duration with company etc on a company letterhead. Do I still need Salary slips in original on company letterhead or online copies will do ?

2. Do I need Original Bank statements from bank or online copies will do ?

3. My wife is also applying as a dependent. Do we need her bank statements aswell? Fyi she is not working.

4. I got two NARIC certificates from my Tier 2 Visa application in 2016, one comfirms Degree comparability and 2nd one confirms degree taught in English Level equivalent to C1 (meets requirements). Do I still need to go for an English test as I already have NARIC certificates ?

Kindly advise.

Mansoor

Dear Moderator,

Could you please let me know on above queries ?

Thanks,

DO NOT tag your question on other topics
You can use digital copies. You do not need her statements. The old NARIC will be enough

Sorry Zimba will take care next time.

Huge thanks for your reply. Appreciate it..!!
