Re: No Decision Letter Given

My wife just received her passport today and was granted her visa to enter UK as a partner. My question is, she was not given a decision letter. I did tell her to make sure she gets it but the VFS office (Lahore) said they no longer issue these. I just wanted to see if anyone else has had a similar...

Re: website not clear about visit rules for foreign spouse

the website has now changed and no longer includes the paragraph about not needing a visa. Seems unlikely this is a coincidence, but instead of just advising me of any error, they quietly changed the website and told me to seek a professional for advice. Class act. Dude this is incredible 😂 I check...

Re: Spouse Visa and Child Right of Abode (CoE)

I believe your son will still not be a British national as he won't have a British passport or Certificate of Naturalisation. However, he will still enjoy the same rights as a British Citizen in terms of immigration and work in the UK. I would probably not state he was a British citizen in your wife...

Re: Spouse Visa and Child Right of Abode (CoE)

As you are a British Citizen a few different questions. Were you born in the UK? Or did you obtain ILR and nationality through your own 5 year visa process (and not relied on your parents British nationality to gain your own after being born abroad)? If yes to either, your child is eligible for a Br...
