I have lived in the UK since 1979, when I arrived as a dependant on my mother’s shared passport.

My current name and date of birth do not match the details on that passport
Can you explain what changed and why?

Re: Visitor Visa (Standard)

Yes. They normally ask applicants if a previous visa application was refused. They may ban an applicant for 10 years, if the answer was false.

Re: Tier 2 dependent visa curtailment

I think a husband cannot cancel a dependant’s visa. Only UKVI can do that. If they cancel a dependant wife’s visa, then it’s likely that they will also cancel any children’s dependant visas, unless the children continue to satisfy the Requirements.

A Consular Birth Certificate may also require an English translation of the original birth certificate?

Hi TechITLondon, I have somewhat similar requirement.

Re: ILR and BRP expiration

If his mother had ILR or was a British citizen when he first applied for his child entry clearance to join her, then they should have granted him ILE.

Risky, if travelling.

If you make an application, then they should refund IHS fees for an overlapping period.

Yes.

Don’t withdraw.

Vary the incorrect SET(M) application to SET(O) and inform the caseworker.

Re: ILR 28 days vs Application Date rules

Your family members
Your partner and children can apply separately at a later date, for example if they’re not eligible yet. They can continue to extend their visa as your tier 1 dependant, even after you get indefinite leave to remain.
