Re: EU Citizen Settled Status, spouse and baby abroad

You can’t just take your son with you to live with you. He will need a visa to reside in the U.K. You will have to apply for this beforehand.

Re: EUSS settled status, loss of EU citizenship

As a former South African, I’m embarrassed for you.
You will have to submit your German passport as proof, and yes, they will check. You could be jailed for immigration fraud.

So, the person claimed asylum, yet wants to go back to the country that they fled because they were in danger there? Make that make sense. I hope Immigration Officials are watching for that. who said the person in question fled Pakistan? They stated they claimed asylum and have a Pakistan ID card?

They are unlikely to be issued a visit visa until the debt has been settled. They should take out travel insurance in future.

Re: Visa options for parents

You should be aware that if you apply for an Adult Dependent Visa for your parents, it will close the door on future visit visas because that will indicate that they do not have strong ties to the home country. As stated above, AD visa only has a 6% chance of success.

Unfortunately, as THO has already advised you, your son is no longer a child, but is considered an adult. He would therefore have to apply for a visa in his own right that he would qualify for. Your best bet would be to ensure that he receives the best qualifications possible so that he can eventual...

My cousin did the wrong English test so was refused. She was told in the refusal to do the correct one and submit for Administrative Review.
Is this the right way to go about it or should she reapply?
