Brilliant! thanks a for the replies, I'll relay that to him. If I remember correctly he had to sit in a HO recognised English language test just before he applied for the extension of his student visa in May 2014(which is still ongoing) so I'm guessing that'll do. Just a quick question about earning...
Hi there and sorry if this has been discussed before. My cousin (who applied for extension of his student visa and it's on going pending a court appeal) is planning on marrying his gf finally. His girlfriend is a UK national and they have been in relationship for about 3 years but not living togethe...
I've read through many pages of comments but I'll like to get an idea as what what is now considered the best way to apply for a British passport in 2015? Is sending direct the best way assuming you can follow the application instructions well? 1) Direct - Not many people send direct...is it becaus...
Your son does not actually need a Pakistani passport to travel if he's got nicop which they normally make before issuing passports. Nicop is valid for 10 years usually as far as I'm aware and is more than enough to prove that he's a Pakistani citizen and doesn't require a visa to travel to Pakistan....
Thank you all for the encouragement but l will be seeing the solicitor next week as there is no deadline for reconsideration and will keep you informed but it's so annoying I applied in May waiting for all that time for them to change their rules anyway let's wait and see. could u plz shed some lig...
Finally may applications have started rolling again. When I called my mp again on the 20th they called the HO and let me know that it was done that day. After a few days when I called the contact centre to enquire they informed me that it was done on 24th. And of course now I received the letter dat...
15th would still be counted as a day you were in the UK. You are not bound to stay in the UK for any number of days after you've submitted the application.
I had my local pharmacist to sign for my kids MN1 form as the second referee. If your GP is charging £25 then I say go ahead with it.
You need two referees and only one of them have to be involved with the child in professional capacity.
Too close to call tbh even if you're going for same day service for your ILR. From the current timeline 2 months window to apply for naturalisation and then passport is a bit too tight. If you can't delay the travel then I would recommend getting him Indian passport and including him in your ILR app...
From what I understand a naturalisation is an individual application and it shouldn't matter if the entire family isn't applying together. However, I would still recommend you attach a NOC from non-applying parent when applying for child. I was once asked to provide a NOC from my wife (basically a l...
Where can I get a passport application form? I dont want to apply online and would like to receive the paper application by post. Thank you. You can make an online application or request a passport application form online or get one from a Post Office that offers the Passport Check and Send service.
Hi all 7 months now since my application didn't hear or receive anything called today on 0300 number and was told that my application is under review and if I want information I should write to them .don't know what that mean is it refused? Does any one have a similar situation please advice thank ...
Its not annoying if they said your application is not allocated to the caseworker because they never can allocate an application to any caseworker until his/ her checks been completed. I'm sure the checks are carried out AFTER the case has been allocated to a caseworker as s/he would be the one req...
14 May applicant and still no success. I requested my documents back and when i received them begining January 2015, there was a letter attached informing me that my case hasn't been assinged to a case worker yet which is surprising. i hve contacted the HO on several times and was informed that the...
Congratulations to everyone who have received their approvals. I am still waiting for mine and thinking I should call my MP again to chase it up. Last time I wrote to her was soon after my 6 months was over and heard the same crap about necessary checks. Anyone has any idea if we can make a Subject ...
Where I do not fully agree with home office racially profiling certain nationalities, I also admit that the argument does carry some weight seeing that the majority of the outstanding applications here are from Pakistani nationals. My entire family that was naturalised were Pakistani nationals and H...
I'm not sure if I can even call this a test match. It's slightly longer than that lol. I've contacted my me a couple of weeks ago. She came back to me yesterday to say that I forgot to mention my date of birth and current nationality (silly me). Now that I have provided her with that info, I'm hopin...
Hi guys, I was received email reply from MP but unfortunately he is unable to Give me good news and he said the home office put to mandatory check and up till the check will carried out not taking decision that is why you need to wait even more than 6 month. Now is my 9th month finishing soon but s...
You are misunderstanding my question. When did she get ILR? Did she do the Life in the UK test for ILR? This is a fundamental requirement for ILR, except for some exceptional circumstances I think. If she did LIUK test for ILR, she DOES NOT have to do the test again for citizenship. Does she meet t...
