Re: Baby British Citizenship / Passport

Thanks for the help, that document helps a lot. I will apply for a British passport for my child and send as many documents as I can and hopefully, it will work. If it gets rejected, will this affect anything in terms of applying for British citizenship? I presume I just lose the fee that I paid and ...

Re: Baby British Citizenship / Passport

The only proof that I can show is the emails that I sent with my CV attached when I applied for vacancies. Some emails are confirmations through Indeed and other careers websites saying that I successfully applied for the job, most of them are just normal emails that I sent out saying that I want to ...

Re: Baby British Citizenship / Passport

Thank you for your response: I was working for 4 years and 6 months when my child was born. I was an undergraduate student before that but did not have private health insurance. I was actually looking for a job throughout my final year of uni and I luckily did find one and started working a few ...

Baby British Citizenship / Passport

Hello, I am an EU national and have lived in the UK since 2004 when I was 12 years old. My wife is a non-EEA national. My child was born in December 2019 in the UK and a month later my Settled Status application was accepted, and my wife's too. I want to apply for a British passport for my child but ...

Re: Afghanistan Visitor Visa for Family

Thank you for the information. We now want to apply for the visa but Afghanistan is currently on the red list. I have spoken to some solicitors and they said we can still apply for the visa even for a red list country like Afghanistan but the visitor would need to quarantine in a hotel for 10 days ...

Re: Afghanistan Visitor Visa for Family

Thanks for the advice Zimba. The government really should have some better procedures or checks to differentiate the genuine visitors from the people that are trying to cheat the system, it's a shame that everyone gets treated the same. Is there any alternative visa or route that can allow my in ...

Re: Afghanistan Visitor Visa for Family

And apologies I forgot to ask: Is it better to wait until corona situation is over so the chances of acceptance go higher, or does it not make a difference if we apply now? If in the worst case scenario the visa gets rejected, applying for it again will be even more difficult to get accepted, right ...

Re: Is My Baby Eligible For A British Passport?

I did not have any insurance while I was studying. My EEA parent was working for more than 5 year while I was in university. Or would that not count since I was an adult at the time?

Is My Baby Eligible For A British Passport?

Hello, I understand that a child is automatically eligible for British passport if either of the parents had settled status before the child was born. I have a Dutch passport and moved to the UK as a child on 2004. I went to secondary school, college, university and also did my post-graduate in the ...

Re: Masters Degree, Exercising Treaty Rights, Sickness Insur

I have read that 'genuine and effective' is quite vague but means that you should work 18 + hours per week and get paid around £160 / week, which is the amount that triggers national insurance contributions.

Have I understood this correctly or is this misinformation?

Thanks noajthan, your posts are always very informative. I have spoken with my manager and they agreed that I can work part time while I do my Masters. I work full time at the moment but will probably end up working 3 or 4 days per week Mon - Fri and also study 1/2 days per week. This is actually ...

Hopefully me and my spouse will apply at the same time in 4 years time. I don't think I have PR from younger years ...

Re: Masters Degree, Exercising Treaty Rights, Sickness Insur

Thanks for the response noajthan.

Would my 5 year period break if my spouse does not have CSI and I do while I am a student?

Does my spouse need CSI cover for my PR application or only for their application?

This is getting quite complicated!

Re: Masters Degree, Exercising Treaty Rights, Sickness Insur

Thanks for the replies guys. If I were to take out comprehensive health insurance for 1 year does my non-EEA spouse have to do the same in order for us to get PR and not break the 5 year period? My spouse is dependent on me. If I get CSI does that mean I can no longer use the NHS at all? How would I ...

From 18-22 years old I was getting Student Finance while I was at University (apart from one year while I was working abroad and getting paid) so would I still be classed as dependent on parents in that time frame? I started working a week or two after I finished uni. I will ask about the 5 year ...

In the 5 year period I would have been 18-23 years old. Is this still ok? Yes, there is solid evidence ...
