What about their schooling exactly?? They can attend school without any issues if they have a Dependent visa. They will have to follow the process of a placement wherever their local council is. Will it be free (as normal) in council schools or it will be paid as Student visa comes with no access t...

Hi My brother's wife want to apply for student visa and ofcourse my brother will get dependent visa, but they got 2 kids, 11 and 8 years old. As I understand kids will also get dependent visa, which is fine but what about their schooling when they will land here in UK ? I am being ignorant in this c...

PBS Tier 2 dependent with main application received ILR earlier this year Visa still valid till next year sometime In that case and going on the timelines of such applicants.. should receive it any day now as it’s been two months already. 1. Write a letter to HO requesting an urgent decision attach...

Getting all the required docs would make a difference but still may take a little time. What sort of a dependant visa is it? Pbs or spouse route? Has visa expired? If PBS, has main applicant received ILR? Depending on background. Could reapply with super priority. PBS Tier 2 dependent with main app...

Hi Gurus One of my friends who applied for ILR (dependent) via normal route in Sept and attended biometric appointment in Oct end. His father got stroke plus brain hamrage and of course now he would like to travel to see him and be with his mother. While he is still waiting for his decision on ILR, ...

I’ve attended my ceremony at 10th October 2019. However at my certificate was wrote only 10th October with no year. I didn’t even think it could be a problem so I’ve applied for passport and send documents to the passport office. After few days I received a call from passport office informing me as...

Thanks to all for useful information. Karo6425, I have always used the following email to provide information to home office as I always got a reply from them nationalitysupportteamfmt@homeoffice.gov.uk. xavieryves, thanks for your reply too. I believe they haven't decided anything on my applicatio...

Hi Thanks for replies. I was at police station for whole day from 4am to 5pm. I don't remember exactly what police said, but I believe they never said caution to me. I am worried that even if they had said caution, I wouldn't have understood it as I didn't know its meaning and the implications. Wha...

Don't panic now.. if this would be an issue, I am sure Home office will get back to you with an option to sign and date your application again. They did that to many cases, either submitted before eligibility or not present in UK on the day 5 years ago. Most likely, it will not be an issue. But ment...

No intentions to scare you, but just by putting you name they can easily find out that you hold a work permit for some EU country which is valid only if you are in employment. Hence, your application could be rejection on the grounds of dishonesty/deception. Honesty is best policy while making such ...

hi, i finally submitted my PP application on the 30th and today i recieved a msg saying that we will contact u on the 26/11 if more info or interview is required. do not book travel. can i call them after a week and see whats happening? should i be worried about this message as i travelling on the ...

I would highly recommend to wait till you complete 12 months of ILR and then apply. Honestly, not worth the risk to apply now and then from personal point of view you did get your immigration status independently this far, then connecting yourself to someone you may not like to be connected isnt wor...

Doesnt matter, Ceremony letter with date is good enough for you to attend the ceremony on 10th Dec. In short, you really don't need Home office letter now. That would be awsome but the Ceremony letter from Register says "You will not be admitted to the ceremony without it" referring to the CITIZENS...

Don't worry, many have received their decision on the next day of this very email from HO. Nothing to worry.

You must declare this in your application. Honesty is the best policy while dealing with such application. This may/may not affect their decision. But if you want to be sure wait till 2021 to apply. Unless you want to fight and come not guilty somehow, which seems quite difficult as it was in 2011 a...

Hello, I am in a weird situation. I received Home Office Citizenship Application acknowledgement via email on 3rd of June (EU route), on 4th of July I enrolled my Biometrics at UKVI center and sent documents, now on 10th of October I received a letter from Register Office saying "You are invited to...

I have 2 questions, would be great if someone can help me ! I have my naturalisation ceremony on the 29th of Oct 19 and i travel on the 18th of Dec to India. First passport take approx 6 weeks to get. Should i take a chance and apply of the bristish pp ? Or just travel on my indian pp with the ILR ...

You are overthinking. Keep calm and fill in the actual true dates in your application. If they will spot inconsistency they will ask and then you can explain. And this isnt an error to impact HO decision on your citizenship. Relax!

You are thinking too much. The free apps are also fine, and if you are not comfortable with reading on your phone then find a nearby library and get LITUK book issued for free. I did read it a night before, and did a few mock tests from the free app next morning for exam in the afternoon. And trust...

Hi all! I made a naturalisation application after 5 years Tier 2, and 1 year ILR in early October. Last week, I realised that I have made two mistakes! 1- In 'Have you ever made any previous immigration applications in the UK or abroad' I answered NO, whereas in some posts I noticed people have sai...

Nothing ridiculous in uploading twice, you may find it ridiculous when Sopra Steria guy will ask/force you to provide him your salary slips, residence proofs, etc etc :lol: :D They did ask me but I was firm that it isnt required for Naturalisation. It IS ridiculous to upload same document twice!!! ...

Took my wife only 3 days with no interview and took me 6 weeks with interview. No standard timescale.

Many thanks Aman - Sorry I meant - Referee declaration forms Is that ok to Upload passport copies twice in 2 different sections or one copy of all passports suffice in Residence in the UK section ( Meaning i dont need to add in this section again- Proof of Identity/Travel History). Thanks you - IR ...

Can you please elaborate? There are many people in desperate situation where they acquired the British Citizenship but they cannot get a British passport due to inconsistencies in their names. How did you fix your issue? I am sure it will help many. Surrender your other passport, use Statutory decl...
