Thanks for your reply. Yes, we used the KOLl waiver form which you linked above. This is filled in by the GP and we also got a separate letter from the GP about the diagnoses and how this affects. The GP kept the form and letter to minimum which I thought is fine, if the Home Office comes back I can ...

Hi Many thanks for the above links I have got a letter drafted from the GP which mentions the diagnoses and how it affects the applicant generally without going into much detail. I’m hoping this is sufficient, if not Home Office can contact the GP directly. A question I had is whether the applicant s ...

Hi I’m getting the letter drafted from the GP. We have requested to add the persons diagnosis and how this affects them. One question I have is whether I should ask the GP to specifically write that the applicant is of sound mind or just leave it at the diagnosis. Please can I have your thoughts on t ...

Thank you, much appreciated! Following on from the above, there is a section in the citizenship application where you can add more information in support of your application.

Hi I’m creating this separate post as it’s a new topic and to save myself and others from confusion. I’m in the process of helping a relative complete their citizenship application and have come across a hiccup In short their history in the last 10 years is as follows November 2015 - Granted 5 year E ...

Thank you, much appreciated.

As for the letter from the Gp, can you think of something that it should be included in the letter specifically?

The applicant will have to pay for any letters/forms from the Gp and I would like to ensure that it contains everything needed.

Thank you Also, one of the relative have requested SAR from home office so that they could have the details of application but Home office have only provided details for the last 10years. The applicant does not have all of the reference numbers and dates as such so should they leave blank anything ...

Many thanks for your reply, much appreciated

The passport is valid, but there is an addition ID card issued by the country which is expired.

They will apply soon for this, but getting a response might take longer and they wish to apply for the citizenship sooner

Hi all I am helping a relative fill in their application and had a few questions. Your help and guidance is greatly appreciated. One question the application asks if the applicant has a valid ID from their country. This is currently expired so should we say ‘No’ and will this negatively impact their ...

The only issue I see is that the applicant has to be of sound mind. Considering the applicant's conditions, is it fair to say that? Could you get a doctor's letter that certifies that? You should also obtain something to state that the applicant has dementia therefore they can't pronounce the oath ...

I presume that the applicant already has ILR. Has the applicant done a English test at the time of ILR? Or did they have an exemption at the time they applied for ILR? Thank you Yes they already have ILR in the form of Settled Status and hence English test wasn’t required. They do have, however, ...

Hello Hope everyone is doing well. Does anyone know how the home office deals with applications for applicants who have medical conditions such as dementia and a stroke Dementia - applicant has problems with memory and as such may not remember if they have made an application Stroke - applicant has ...

Dear members and experts My relative is in process of their citizen application and have got the medical exemption form for the English Language test They have speech issues and would therefore not able to take the oath of allegiance verbally.

Thanks for your reply

If they did use the ex sister in law as a referee would the home office reject their application? Or will they ask for alternative referee?

Hi

Asking for a relative. Can they use their ex sister in law as their referee for their British citizenship.

Many thanks

Many thanks for your response I am not sure I understand what you mean When I register for the details, do I use the email address of the applicant and confirm this email address belongs to the applicant? Obviously, Say no to the Immigration advisor part Then the next question is below: Are you ...

Hello With the help of this forums I have managed to applied for BC and am currently awaiting a response. I am at the very early stage of the process of applying British Citizenship for my relative and so I am not sure if it requires a new thread or if the administrators want to merge it with the ...

@vinny

Thank you and it’s great to know

Also, do you think I should add this in my cover letter as there is a question in the end which asks about applying discretion or should I not mention it at all?

@vinny
Are you saying I should be okay then?

I am applying under 6(1)
I have settled status
I believe to meet the good character requirements other than just that period without valid leave

I am referring to the below text So if my understanding is correct does it mean that if overstaying is the only issue in the good character requirement, then this will be disregarded? Please correct me if I am wrong “ Prior to 28 June 2022, immigration breaches in the 5-year period before a c ...

Hello

Are there any chances of citizenship application being approved if you have been an overstayer in the last 10years before your application?

Can I ask the case worker for discretion if there was a period of no legal stay as I had an application in an appeal for a very long time?

Hi Is there a tactic to booking a free appointment locally for the Biometric? I have either found that there are no appointments or they are very expensive and this makes me very nervous If there are no free appointments available now does it mean that they won’t become available or they will be f ...
