I honestly think that India should just allow dual citizenship. The distinction between OCI and PIO is quite confusing in many instances. I too think they might merge it into just one class of visa, but then again it might be a long wait before that happens. As a point of interest, does anyone know...
Still don't get it. Here are people who go to Solicitor for ILR ... anyone please ... how do solicitor makes difference? ... apart from helping fill application and get dates? ..... It comes down to an individual's preference. There are those who are less confident in reading and understanding the ...
I agree that the government might have gone a bit far in trying to control this, as families should never be kept apart, however, I simply don't understand why so many people are hell-bent on moving to Eng land when they don't understand a word of Eng lish (and in this case even make it worse by de...
Casa's point was one that was mooted on BBC Radio 4 (arguably a more objective source than the Daily Hate Mail). This lady's husband apparently lives in some remote region of Gujarat and the opportunities for him to learn English somewhere both financially and logistically reasonable are limited. I ...
I agree with much of what has been posted already. You can avoid a lot of hassle by settling up your debts (assuming that you are financially able to). If you are able to settle your debts, perhaps it might be worth making contact with the debt management agency?
The nearest town is Bishop's Stortford which is a small town in Hertfordshire. A lot of staff from Stansted airport live in Bishop's Stortford, although it is not exactly the most multicultural of places (as are many of the places in the East Herts/Uttlesford area). The area itself is predominantly ...
I have a qquestion on a similar front. Once I acquire British citizenship does my Indian passport need to be surrendered before applying for a British passport? Will I not have to send them my Indian passport when applying for a British one? I applied for my British passport first and then surrende...

Thank you for your advice. I'd be willing to use a similar approach to you and I'll hold out some hope that things may well be all sorted in time. If not, it's good to know that I'll be able to travel 7 days after submitting my application even up until I attend a citizenship ceremony. I suppose, in...
Dear all, I would appreciate the forum's advice with respect to my situation. I am an Indian citizen who is currently in the process of applying for British citizenship. In fact I submitted my application a couple of days ago. Since submitting my application, I have discovered that I unavoidably nee...
From the FT Master's only' visa rule for migrants scrapped The lower-tier group included colleges for homeopathic education, Chinese medicine and circus skills. http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/58786cea-e076-11de-8494-00144feab49a.html They offer courses in circus skills? Whatever next? Underwater basket ...
Hi tvn_ramesh, I have some doubts about the employment letter and payslips, from what i read, i have to sublit 12 months of payslips...should these be original...will they return them back to me? should they be sealed in envelopes...why is that so necessary? i read on the forums that I also have to...
How did you end up losing your right to work? Can you not use your existing visa to work? Your status is unchanged until you hear a result from the UKBA after all...
I don't think that this will be a problem. If your recall of the dates is accurate, then the UKBA can check the date you left the UK on their own system. Assuming a match, I don't think that you'll have too many problems.
From what I recall, the SET(O) form would apply if you had 14 years of continuous stay (due to the fact that you have overstayed) and not 10...assuming you were considering the long residence concession?
In general, most solicitors/agents will charge the sort of figures you are quoting, and I doubt you'll find things THAT much cheaper. Going with an agent has many advantages, but it is possible (as another poster has mentioned above) to submit your application on your own (assuming that your applica...
