Filling FLR (O) form

tech · Post by **tech** » Mon Jul 31, 2006 9:02 pm

Hi experts

Simple question. When filling FLR (O) form to get a visa for a new born baby, should i put the applicant name as baby's name and leave out the rest of the sections (because none of them are applicable) or should I put my name as applicant name and put the baby name in dependents sections ?

Please advise. Any help is highly appreciated.

Complete the form as if the baby was compleing it personally!

The only exceptions are that you should sign the declaration using your normal signature, and also you will need to complete the Payer details .... 6 to 16 on page 3 of 19.

leave out the rest of the sections (because none of them are applicable)

Don't leave them blank. Complete them as relevant. For example Q3.1 is obviously "D". And Q4.1 should no doubt be answered "No", unless you have a very naughty baby! (that is a joke!). etc etc.

Hi John

Thanks for your reply. Do I need send passports of both parents or father passport is enough ? I read it on this forum I can get this done in person at the cost 500 pounds ? can you please confirm this ?

Thanks for your time.

As regards applying at a PEO, you don't disclose your location so I don't know which PEO you might be using. However a quick look at the links from this webpage shows that they all entertain applications of this type. So click on the relevant link for Croydon, Birmingham, Liverpool and Glasgow, roughly 40% of the way down that webpage, and make the necessary appointment.

If going along in person you might as well take both parent's passports with you. However the important one is the passport of the main visa holder, for example, if father is the main visa holder and mother has a dependent visa, then it is father's passport that is important.

[Edit : Since writing the above, nearly two years ago, there is now a PEO in Sheffield, as well as the other four.]

Hi!

I'm planning to apply FLR(O) for my baby (I'm on HSMP). Just double checking what documents I need to submit

FLR(O)
My Passport (do I need to send my wife passport as well)
Birth Certificate
Bank statement (do I really need to send this)

Anything else??

Rgds,

At the very least I also think you need to forward your baby's passport ..... otherwise where are they going to put the visa?

lol John

Sorry i forgot to mention that..do u think I need to send anything else?

Looking at the FLR(O) form, see Section 7A. You need to cover all of those items, as relevant.

So I think as well as Bank Statements, it will certainly do no harm to enclose a few recent payslips.

Hi

I'm filling FLR(O) for my newborn.A bit confused because of fallowing quote

Don't leave them blank. Complete them as relevant. For example Q3.1 is obviously "D".

D is 'AU Pair', should I tick on it OR should I tick on other and in description write ' Dependent of HSMP visa holder'.

D is 'AU Pair', should I tick on it OR should I tick on other and in description write ' Dependent of HSMP visa holder'.

Have you noticed the date of my post that you are quoting? Clearly the form has been redesigned in the last two years.

My apology

Post by **John** » Wed Aug 13, 2008 1:23 pm

No problem. Given the way the forms do get altered it is totally impossible to go back and change posts later.

D is 'AU Pair', should I tick on it OR should I tick on other and in description write ' Dependent of HSMP visa holder'.

Clearly the child is not an Au Pair, and I agree, I think you should tick "Other" and enter the text that you suggest.

Two years ago I also mentioned Q4.1. My recollection of the form two years ago was that Q4.1 then asked about criminal convictions, but that is now Q5.1.

The basic advice remains ... complete the form as if the baby was personally holding the pen and writing, with the exception of you signing the form in your normal signature, and you needing to make payment for the application.

Hi,

I am on HSMP that is valid for another year. Recently had my son born here in UK and now i was going to apply for his visa. I confirmed with Home Office which form to use and they advised me FLR(O).
I am sending all the relevant documents including my bank statements for last three months. The confusion i have is that my balance has been less than 500 pounds a couple of times during last three months and was wondering whether the condition of "Maintainence Funds" as introduced in Points based system (800 pounds for me + 533 for each dependent) will be applicable to my son's FLR application as i am responsible for their maintenence. Will the application be rejected?
I am confused because i have read in Point Based System Guidance Notes that HSMP holders will have to apply for extension under PBS system (although criteria for extension will be different to that of new application) BUT they will have to prove Maintenence ability.

I am confused about it. Could anyone please help and advise me? Many thanks!
