28 day rule is absolutely fine. It worked for me.

As always, one useful reply and another 'not so useful' one!

Thanks OFCHARITY.

Got ILR at last. Now submitted MN1 form for child born in the UK. Can anyone explain how to apply for a child's first british passport. The IPS website is not very clear as there is no mention of submitting child's BC registration certificate along with the application form. Should I take the passpo...

nj,

You should count 10 years from the day you landed in the UK

Thanx Magsi.

It was last week, no gaps, combination of permit free training and HSMP

Also, One does not have to declare fixed penalty notice

You should get right of abode stamped in your indian passport as your ILR is no longer valid ie automatically cancelled. If he gets right of abode stamped in his Indian passport then Indian authorities will know that he is a citizen of UK and that will put him in even a more trouble and worse situa...

They told me when i was booking my appt

Just an update

Spoke to NCS who in turn spoke to home office...

For those of you who are still not sure, it is not necessary to have ILR stamp in the childs passport if they are born in the UK and if parents have ILR. They can be registered directly using MN1

Technically your indian passport is not cancelled till you get your british passport but I suspect it could be tricky at the indian border

Must be a rumour or a misunderstanding. Cant find anything as of now to that effect. There is only 1 appointment each day at every PEO to apply in person on the basis of 10 year rule. Based on this, i think the call centre person must have told there are no more appointments for the next 6 weeks. Mi...

Thanks

Thanks for clarifying, John.

Thanks so much, Vinny.

Thanks Raj

But on MN1 form, it specifically asks the date when child got ILR.

Minny

John, Thanks. Sorry, I did not make myself clear. My question was, should I also get ILR stamp in the chlid's passport as I have to make a separate appointment/ application and pay £1020 for this (long residence does not allow dependents). Instead can I directly apply on MN1 for registering him as ...

I am a dependent on my spouses HSMP. Should he be present at the time of my ILR application (long residence). We are going on 2 separate days, thanks to the lottery system in getting appointments!

Sorry, I saw this thread after I posted my similar query earlier today.

I am a bit confused, as on the MN1 form, it does specifically ask when the child was granted ILR. Is this not contradictory to what some of the members have said?


Thanks

Would be grateful for some advice please.... Both spouse and myself applying for ILR soon (long residence). We have a 2 year old born in the UK. Should we get ILR stamp in the childs passport before we apply for registration of the child as british national or can we directly register the child usin...

thanks.

Hi All,

I have almost completed 5 years in the UK (2 years permit free training and almost 3 years on HSMP). Can I apply for ILR based on this? There is nothing mentioned on the bia website about this.

Thanks for the advise as always!

Minny

Can anyone pl clarify the maximum break one can have on hsmp (and at a strech) to be still eligible for ILR?

Can I enter UK (on hsmp) after 5 months of continuous stay abroad?

Thanks

Minny

thanks
