Does this mean that the borough council will provide an NCS service to an applicant who does not live within the same borough?! If that's the case, applicants should be opting for those that provide the joint citizenship/passport service which is currently proving to take less time to decide on an a...

Hello Learned People I shall be grateful for your view on whether PR could be refused because the applicant was a jobseeker for eight and a half months between 2012 and 2013. I considered that there was a genuine prospect of work by virtue of being a degree holder but I am concerned that this might ...

Hello. You may wish to contact your local Citizens Advice Bureau and/or your MP for advice and help.

However, to be able to apply for British citizenship, you should provide a document to certify permanent residence (called 'DCPR' - applied via the EEA3 form) AND have held permanent residence status for at least 12 months Thanks very much for your help. The above statement is news to me, I thought...

Hi all, I thought my case would be simple as I am an EEA national, but turns out not so easy after all. I have lived in the UK for almost 10 years, first 7 years were in full-time education, although I have also had full time jobs. My issue is to prove that I had the comprehensive sickness insuranc...

Thank you for your help, all nice and clear! I'm tempted to ditch the form, it would be less fuss. The only thing is that I've already spent time printing this monster and filling it out. Yes, that's exactly what I was thinking, put the explanation in 9.13. Thanks again ohara and LilyLalilu, you ga...

Thanks both! I still had my flat in the UK whilst I was away and was paying rent and bills as normal. I was also sending out lots of applications to UK companies whilst I was away if this makes any difference?! It sounds like you were a jobseeker during that period but that you were travelling duri...

Here's my PR timeline: 1. Worker for 3 1/2 years 2. Left the country to go travelling for 2 months 3. Self-sufficient for 2 months (had enough savings and CSI) 4. Worker for 1 year and 2 months During the two months away I was obviously not exercising treaty rights as I was abroad and therefore fre...

Hi! I'm looking for timeline advise.

Hello my lovelies! I've just been looking through these incredibly helpful boards and am still feeling very needy. Any advice for me? I think I'm a pretty simple case - German national living here since 2006. I've been employed continuously in a salaried job throughout that time, never used any ben...

Yes you are correct. If it is for secondary school, the closest would be 'Study'. Vocational training refers to actual training (e.g. carpentry, mechanics, electricals, etc). All the best. Thank you for answer. Yes, this is for residency. I red that there is exemption for longer absence such as preg...

Hello. I understood your query for 7.1 as you being away for one year during the five year period. Is that correct? If that's the case, then you won't be eligible to apply under that the EEA3 route as you would have spent more than six months away from the UK. Such is my understanding but I am happy...

Hello, congratulations! Can I ask if you submitted both ID card and passport or only one of them? It's not clear if you can submit an ID card and travel with passport. Thanks.
