AIUI, you cannot marry another individual while being given leave to enter / remain the UK as a spouse of different individual. If your relationship with your partner breaks down regards I have seen the above posting on the UKBA website but it is not really clear. Would the no switching rule apply ...
Hi Board: Could someone clarify the following: - Para 287. (a) The requirements for indefinite leave to remain for the spouse or civil partner of a person present and settled in the United Kingdom are that: (ii) the applicant is still the spouse or civil partner of the person he or she was admitted ...
No, NHS employees are not Civil Servants. John, only crown employees are civil servants so what about local government employees like the council etc? A civil servant or public servant is a civilian public sector employee working for a government department or agency. The term explicitly excludes t...
I called Home Office 2 weeks before and they said NHS official are acceptable for refrees No doubt correct, but a receptionist is not an official. Or put it this way, using your definition, almost anyone could be called an official. Is a cleaner at the hospital, doing a very important job, an offic...

Hi I am in exactly a same situation as this case. I was imposed a fine by the court for a speeding violation - that I accepted at the first instance. The fine was imposed in May 06. The NCS recommended that I should wait until May 11 for the 'spent' period. However, I looked at section 3.4.2 of Cha...
Dear All: Just saw the new publised IDI for LRC and the rules have been relaxed as per the previous rules. Gaps less than 6 months are even allowed so long as you left the country with a valid LTR and returned with a valid leave. Read Below: 2.2.4 Time spent outside the United Kingdom Continuous res...
The reason UKBA have no record of these persons' ILR is because they have not made any application or been granted Indefinite Leave to Remain in the UK, so there will be no Home Office file. They came here with Indefinite Leave to Enter , which as the OP stated was endorsed by the Immigration Offic...
Denise T: Simple solution is to contact the Local BHC which issued the EC for your daughters and make a request for copies to be sent to you under the data protection act. I believe your daughters need to give their consent since they are over 18 years now. The danger is that, the records would have...
My understanding is that a child dependent does not need to attend. Certainly when we applied at the Birmingham PEO in March 2002, we clarified it and were told that my step-daughter, then aged 6, did not need to attend at the PEO. Nevertheless ILRs granted to both my wife, present, and step-daught...
Has anyone applied succefully for a first passort using a cancelled passport only? I'm reluctant to send off my current passport as I require it to travel to and from Switzerland every two weeks. Any advise! IPS are hopeless with one person saying one thing and the other contradicting the first per...
I want to scream all the time, "We don't claim your bloody benefits!" but honestly I'm exhausted. Mate! I do not blame you at all! I am simply biding my time here, building up my CV and going home to make my country better for the next generation coming after me, so they will have no need to leave ...
But is this the case if one has a VISITOR's visa? This is what I am unsure of. Does a visitor visa count as a valid visa for ILR purposes? Well, if your VV was a multiple entry visa then you are fine but if it was for single entry, the moment you left the UK the visa becomes null and void and if yo...
As an American Citizen, assuming she has a US passport, your "fiance" does not require a visa to enter the UK for visits less than 6 months. I think you should take all the advise you have been given and meet a couple of times before making the big jump. Mate, as the saying go, "been there, done tha...
Existing LTR is deemed to be continous until the new application is decided. So he should be fine. No he is not fine. Otherwise OP wouldn't be posting here in the first place, HO has already rejected his ILR application. You are allowed to remain in country only if you have FLR application pending ...
Hi Jes2jes My wife will be completing 3 years this October.......She got her ILR last December and i guess I could start`the application process anytime from Dec ? Well no. Your wife can process her application exactly on the 3rd anniversary of her UK stay. She would have used December had you not ...
Hi Akupa, 8. Copy of Home Office letter confirming my wife’s PR status Has your wife applied for naturalisation already since she can apply straight away and not wait for one year since she's married to a British citizen? That isn't technically true. You can only avail of the 1 year on ILR if you...
Hi Frontier Mole, that is useful. But are you able to clarify exactly who this first step is aimed at? That is, what exactly do they mean be "someone holding permanent residence in the United Kingdom"? What do the use of the words "permanent residence" mean, in that sentence? Are they talking about...
