Well..easier said than done...it takes many documents and very long time to do all that, not to mention that taking a photo of a baby who breath through the tube and in intensive care unit is not going to be easy... There must be a provision for such exceptional circumstances...maybe transfer of the...

Hi Not really sure where to post it but need urgent help please! My friends are here on Tier 1 visa (husband’s the main applicant and wife is dependant, nationality - Azerbajan). Wife was 7 months pregnant when they travelled on Friday this week to Paris, France, where she had an emergency c-section...

Weird question – how can anybody but you know what docs you submitted and what your life was like for the past 6 years? Looking at your first post on http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewtopic.php?p=464642&highlight=#464642 one can only guess that it is related to your taxes. Wait and see what els...

He or she can say whatever they like but to prove residency lack of passport is number one in line of evidences – which was exactly my point. So since they’ve never had british passport and somalian government never issued any inside the UK only adds to the evidence of continuous residency for 1...

You can’t travel without passport and you can’t NOT have evidence of your residency if you went to local schools. Difficult or not government have your records regardless how many times you moved. Talk to council where you think you have lived and went to school to. And where are your parents an...

Also, the main issue I have with this. Even if the child is allowed to stay, will it be granted British citizenship??? This is necessary as it gives the child an identity. Without it the child wouldn't be eligible for a birth certificate, wouldn't be allowed to attend school etc. Would in your opin...

everyone deserves an identity and a chance to belong to somewhere. Is the child supposed to just go on without a nationality?? without British citizenship she won't be able to attend British school etc surely It is simply not possible not to have nationality since it is inherited by birth. Child wi...

why? Only cos she never left country been 1 year old?

It doesn’t matter – partners are not blood related and can’t sign as well as parents, for example.

Ah-a! It hasn’t appeared on my balance yet but the available limit on the credit card (I paid with Master card) shows that it’s coming!!!!

I was only kidding although it is true that I’d like to see money leaving my account and whatever happens after that – not a problem

Maybe I should call as well to ask to take my money at least?

how is that possible?

Hi All, I am new to this forum. Criteria :: HSMP 4 Yrs + 1 yrs ILR Type :: Next Day Delivery Royal Mail Date of submission :: 02/04/2011 (Saturday) Date application received by UKBA :: 04/04/2011 (According to Royal Mail) Date of debit of credit card :: still waiting Date of receipt of acknowledgem...

I'm prepared to wait, but my concern is that this is a collective issue, which is not related to specific cases. I mean, in this forum alone, the percentage of those whose applications is yet to be picked up is very near 100% This means, however busy they might be, at least they should be able to f...

Same here my appointment with NCS was on the 1st of April, assuming application has reached HO on the 4th of April.

I haven’ seen any references in the guide or booklet or on the form itself regarding benefits/public funds.

I know or rather my friend, who has naturalized about 10 years ago, said that back then it affected application.

Agree, the question is not clear. The simple rule is what it says in the guidance and should be followed by default. I do not think there are any exceptions to it: For example if your application is received on 20 /1/2010 you should have been physically present in the United Kingdom on 21 /1/2007.

Because you were present on the 2nd. Yes, as exactly because of THAT if application reaches HO on the 8th (ie next day after NCS accepts if) then whether or not person was in the UK on the 7th is irrelevant – he/she should be in the UK on the 9th! Sure it’s safer to wit extra day or two but the...

The guide says For example if your application is received on 20/1/2010 you should have been physically present in the United Kingdom on 21/1/2007. BUT You must have been physically present in England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man or the Channel Islands on the day 3 years befor...
