Thank you alterhase58, I had checked that already, but thank you. The most difficult part seems to be finding a suitable countersignatory who has known me for 2 years and with a British passport, while living abroad!

Just to specify: I could apply before leaving, but I do not have with me my uncancelled passport

Hi All, I have done a research on the forum, but not found a specific answer. I have had British naturalisation, but never requested the actual British passport as I was using my EU one. Now, I will have to leave the UK for family reasons. I have read that the procedure for a first British passport ...

Hi everyone, Do they send back the passport automatically or do we have to request it ? and how ? I searched in the forums and in the HO website and I did not find the answer to my query (maybe I used the wrong words!) I already received email acknowledging receipt of PR certificate application Than...

Hello, I'm debating the best way to list the EEA national's activities on the EEA(PR) form, I would greatly appreciate some advice. I came to the UK at study and then i also started working and had a few jobs since. I was never really a job seeker, because I pretty much always already had a job sor...

Thank you guys. I asked the accountant to help with the documentation too (plenty of them after all) Although the topic in here is to prove 7.5 + year of permanent residence, I can confirm that I am self-employed (as much as I would like to enjoy benefits of employment like job-security or in case o...

Many thanks noahjtan

Hello everyone, I am collecting the documents :roll: to be enclosed in the Application form. I am a self-employed dentist and since my arrival to the UK (over 7.5 years ago) I have been working for 2 different dental practices as an associate.

And use of idioms and metaphors is one indicator of fluency which can surely help in any proof of English test..

I was thinking exactly that earler!

Cheers again

Always good to look ahead and make sure you have all the ducks in a row . Never heard that before, but I like it :D Absolutely ! I was reading the AN already (in fact I was not aware - did not want to think - about language test...) and I will have a look at the FAQs too Thank you very much, you are...

Thank you for taking the time to explain!

Thank you again

Although I was aware that PR is acquired after 5 years, I assumed wrongly that they would look retrospectively to the *last* 5 years.... thanks for explaining the difference.... Actually, can I ask for confirmation of one more thing, as you...

Hello, hope someone can help as I could not find asnwer to this in previous posts! So I have been in the UK for almost 8 years and I assume that only last 5 years absences are necessary, but on the form they ask for: Have you (or has your sponsor, if applicable) had any absences from the UK since yo...
