how can the child travel without a passport?
you need to wait for the passport to arrive before the child can leave the country.

sorry for asking another question, can I just submit my NARIC certificate and English degree as proof of being thought in English and having sufficient English language skills?

thanks but is that for passport though? I don't see the requirement for Form AN guidance or the caseworker guidance.

thanks, does the requirement of knowing them for over 3 years still apply? I am unable to find it in the guidance?

how do I change the form now, can I just get the new referee to sign the declaration form now that I have paid?

thanks, another question, is it possible to change a referee once I have added them in the application form the referee in question is no agreeing to sign in the declaration form, as they are scared of the wordings in the declaration form. The referee's father's brother is married to my mother's sis...

I have completed and paid for my application but just noticed a typo in the email address of the second referee, is this something to be concerned, does the HomeOffice send an email to the referees? I'll be mentioning their correct email address in the reference letter that I'll get signed from them...

Is it fine if the referral letter is signed online(via Adobe or such services) or does it have to be signed in person and scanned?
Also how will the name behind the photo be validated if it is a digital copy or even a scanned one?

I am trying to apply for a British passport for my child born in the UK, I (father) have ILR but haven't applied for British passport yet. My wife doesn't have ILR and is on a dependant visa. I am trying to apply for a British passport for my child but it is asking for grandparent details(who aren't...

Thanks is there any other route with a shorter time period requirement she'll be eligible for? Could she switch to the Family visa for instance?

My wife is planning to be out of the country for close to one year on personal work. As it stands, she will be eligible for ILR in Jan 2024 on Tier-2 dependant route, I got ILR in 2021 on Skilled worker route. What will be the implications of her choosing to be outside the UK for most of 2023, if sh...

Thanks all, I just wished there was a way I could generate a code online to check if I am the owner of the BRP, similar to the right to work check where I share a code with the employer. DVLA could even grab the photo from the BRP database, they have all my information but still insist on sending my...

I have applied for a provisional driving license and have received a form which I should return along with a valid identity document like BRP card. There is an option to generate a share code from UKVI and fill this in the form but the share code only works if I had previously used the UKVI ID Check...

no response from home office, any advice on how I can get a refund for the priority service fee?

I applied for my wife's visa extension in July 2022 and it has been granted till July 2024, which is three years from my(main applicant) ILR's begin date. I had paid for IHS until end of Dec 2024 according to the IHS calculator, She had a valid visa till July 2022, IHS was paid until July 2022 with ...

another clarification, so I can also travel in the period between receiving the approval and attending the citizenship ceremony with the old passport and BRP?

Thanks

Thanks for the detailed explanation.

Thanks both, is there any guideline on how long after the application has been processed that one must appear for the citizenship ceremony?

Hi All I am planning to submit the naturalisation application and appears it can take any where between 3-6 months and a further 1-2 months for getting the passport? I have a planned travel within the next 6 months, is it possible to travel while the application is being processed? Can I still trave...

thanks CR001, but the period is less than 3 years? its also not 3 years from 23/09/2019? edit: I get it now, its 3 years from my ILR issue date. what would have been the IHS charges for this latest renewal? I had paid ~£1550 and also priority service fee of £500, can I request refund for either of t...

Hi I got my ILR (Tier-2/Skilled Worker route) in 2021 and recently renewed my wife's Tier-2 dependant visa status until July 2024. My wife will be eligible for ILR in Jan 2024. She got her first dependant visa from Jan 2019 until July 2021 but I changed jobs in 2019, so she got a visa extension till...

Received email today, stating application has been approved and BRP should be received within 7 working days.

been more than 3 weeks now, how can I get an update from UKVI?
No one answers the phone numbers and unable to escalate or find the status anywhere.

It has been more than 7 working days since the appointment(priority service) for my wife,
we have not yet received any email or letter. The date has gone past the current validity of the existing BRP, is there anything I can do to check the status with the home office?

Thanks

Thanks again, I have now paid for 2.5 years worth IHS charge as it asked for the expiration of my work/visa and I entered 31/12/2024 (as was in my ILR). But my wife would herself become eligible for ILR after Jan 2024, which would only require 2 years worth of IHS payment, can I request for the visa...
