HI,

Could you please change my username to "kali2023"

Hi,

I got my ILR on 14th Feb 2022. Can I apply in 28 days before 14th Feb 2023 for my BC application process?

I saw a similar query posted back in 2013, so just enquiring again to see if something has been changed by now.

Thanks

Thanks Zimbra, 1) Somewhere I read that non UK born child still has to go though 5 years continuous residence period before applying ILR. From your answer I assume that this is not the case. 2) if me and my wife both are having ILR and living in UK. can I apply the ILR application(settlement) from o...

or what are all options(like types of visas) my child has if we apply from outside and me and my wife both are having the ILR ( or British passport incase)?

Thanks Ticktack, what about 180days absent rule for dependent children ?

Hi, Good news, Just now I received an email from home office stating that my application has been successfully. I attended biometric on last Saturday and today I received the email. I did not not expect it would be processed so fast as I applied on priority service which can take 5 days. Finally, I ...

But Now when I look at Ecctis UK NARIC transition 2021 FAQ, it is clearly mentioned that old NARIC certificate is still valid. Quoting the answer below. "Yes. All statements issued by UK NARIC...

Hi ,

Is it ok to upload NARIC certificate ? my appointment is on Saturday and I have uploaded the NARIC certificate which I got 5 years back. Is that enough or should i get the ecctis certificate ?

Hi, I have filled the application and I'm ready to pay the fee and submit it, however I don't have latest bank statement and it will come tomorrow. Can I submit the application and book the biometric appointment today and upload the documents tomorrow? One more thing, I have landed UK in 12th Feb 20...

Silver75,

Many thanks for the clarifications.

Hi Silver75,

But I have changed once my employer in 2018, but I am having the copy the old BRP card. Is that ok?

Regards

Hi Silver75, Thanks for the reply. Letter issued by UKVI 5 years ago really, I don't remember keeping any of those documents. I received my passport with entry clearance vignette on it when visa got issues. It is ok if I submit the entry clearance vignette from passport as proof of immigration? Thanks

Hi silver75 ,

Thanks for the suggestion, sure will add a note there. BTW I am on tier 2 general visa and I am submitting my ILR application under set(O) category, I hop this is correct .

HI AmazonianX , Thanks for the reply. isn't it absent dates mentioned in application should exactly match with company supplied letter? I am not sure I was clear with my query, Here I explain again the two issues that I had with my previous employer. I worked for a XYZ company starting from 13 Feb 2...

Hi. I am planning to apply ILR next week. My query is that I took piad annual leave(I travelled out of UK) starting from Monday but I left UK in Friday night after attending the office.

Does this impact my application?

Hi CR001, I have joined a new company in Sept 2018, so when I requested the visa sponsorship for my newborn baby(at that time all my dependants were India), the immigration adviser for this company suggested to apply a fresh visa for all my dependents again from India. It was a bad decision I agree,...

Hi Zimbra,

She left the UK in Feb 2018 for pregnancy delivery.
Her initial BRP was valid from 25-06-2017 to 15-02-2020.

Hi Zimbra and Char One more clarification I need. My wife second leave of grant was applied/issued in India in 2018, so does this poses any problem for her ILR application in 2022. Below are full details. 1st BRP was issued in India(leave to enter) in June 2017 2nd BRP was issued again in India(leav...

Hi Char and Zimbra, I came across the following document( updated on Dec01,2020) which talks about the transitional arrangement and mentions that any absences during leave granted before 11 January 2018 will be considered in 12 months consecutive period. ILR continuous period calculation Transitiona...

Thanks, Char and Zimba,

Thanks for the pointers. Yes, that wording is clear that the rule applies to the visas issued from 11 Jan 2018.
Let me point the document to the consulting company which is renewing visas.

Once again many thanks.
