Surprised to get a call frm home - passports are delivered today - Impressed ! My Timelines : Naturalisation Application : 29th Sept Ceremony Date : 29th October IPS Applicatio...

Many thanks, any advise if I need to be personally at home to take delivery of passport or anyone at home can sign to collect passports ? Hi Generalisimus / Magsi , Apologies to jump in and repost my query here as I did not get any remarks on a new topic - thought its worth a try to repeat here. I h...

Hi Generalisimus / Magsi , Apologies to jump in and repost my query here as I did not get any remarks on a new topic - thought its worth a try to repeat here. I had passport intw yesterday , need to check if anyone who had passport intw was asked if he / she was on a voter list ? I had to tell the f...

many thanks, one last bit - what options do you select : is it the one which says applied before 6 months ( although its not the case ) ? Or are we also able to speak to someone with the first option ? @Generalisimus : any suggestion how / what to ask when we enquire the status on 0151 672 5626 ? Tr...

@Generalisimus : any suggestion how / what to ask when we enquire the status on 0151 672 5626 ? Tried calling now and it appears they would not let us know status unless its more than 6 months . Any tips on how to speak to find out if the application has been forwarded to a case worker or any decisi...

Jambo, Congrats ... Re referees, I am struggling with GP / Health Visitor or Nursery who knows my 20 month baby ....as they do not want to give passport details , home address - any ideas if I can just use two british passport holders as referee ? Or can referee just sign them with no passport numbe...

hi, its been tough indeed to manage referees for my 20 month baby....still struggling to manage second referee who has dealt professionally with a little one ! Apparently the nursery says they can issue reference letter but cannot sign on the form giving their passport no & home address ! Health vi...

congratulations chakde23. I have two questions. I am on WP How much money do I have to show in the current account or any amount is ok? I assume they look at your statements just to see your corresponding salary as per your pay slip . I dont have my very first P60 and I can't get P14 as I have chan...

Friends, finally cleared another step yesterday - must admit my experience @ Croydon PEO was rather very pleasant and smooth :) For anyone with WP + Tier 1 , I would like to share few details : 1) I was asked for P60 for all five years - did not have one for 1 P60 for but had p14 ( end of year summa...

Thanks for your response, Our GP is not helpful , do you think if someone from my daughter's day nursery or playgroup will do ? I belive they need to be british passport holders too ? Sameera, Congratulations ! I have been going through your old postings, can you please confirm how did you finally m...

Sameera, Congratulations ! I have been going through your old postings, can you please confirm how did you finally manage to get referees for registration ? Did you also use same referee / reference for passport ? Hi all, Thankfully I recieved my kids registration certificate today. Here is my timel...

Any guess if these checks may have been carried out while issuing live to remain if we recently have switched from HSMP or WP to Tier 1 as well ? And if that went fine , hopefully there may be no issues until something as happened otherwise between our last LTR and today ? Hi iyanu I am not sure wha...

Can you please share further info of doing SAR through national police database . Any specific format , documents to send . address to send , etc

Thanks for your response, I sent SAR request by post last week - not sure how long will it take ? Even cheque is not banked yet , any ideas to expedite SAR request ? Hi Chakde I came to UK on a WP, before that I was not in UK. I think the day your WP granted counts rather than the start date of the ...

Hi Shiv, Congratulations ! Re Employment dates , are you referring to your first employment under WP ? Did you have an incountry switching to wp category or did you enter UK on a WP ? Can you comment on my situation : my incountry WP switch in UK was granted on 26th Oct 04 but I joined job 1st Nov 0...

Hi , can anyone comment w.r.t start date in employment letter : Does it need to be exact 5 years ( minus 28 days ) before ILR intw date ? My case is incountry switching from visitor visa to workpermit and now Tier 1 with the same employer since my workpermit was stamped on passport ( dated 26th Oct ...

Hi, All the best for next week - do you normally require all 5 years p-60 ? I have last 3 years p60 - do we need this to satisfy that we were working all 5 years ? I am with the same employer since last 5 years , do you think employer letter will suffice if I cant manage to get p60 for the first two...

Your formula is correct my friend , got an appointment successfully with dependents @ croydon this morning . Started trying exactly @ 8.59 am - everytime it said " thank you for calling blah blah" - i disconnected and tried until it said "welcome " . As you said earlier , it used to take 6-8 minutes...

Thanks, infact I did manage to get an appointment for self + dependents successfully this morning at 9.00 am @ croydon . Hi, your spouse could definitely book for you and the whole family. She would just be asked about your personal information as reference (mobile phone, birthdate, date of entry......

Lucky, I tried and all was booked !

Do you have any dependents or is it a single application ?

Those who applied at Liverpool, how is your experience with the staffs there?

Thanks in advance

Hi Guys, Is it possible for spouse to book appointment incase she is trying from home and I try from work ? I mean if she gets connected and there is an availability , will she be allowed to book on my behalf ? Just called at 8.59 am today, using both phones available at home, and got an appointment...

Hi, I starting calling from 8.57 but have noticed we only get connected at 9.00 am - till then it says office closed. Even after 9.00 am , its tough to get through.I had made 52 calls this morning disconnecting every second it said - every one is busy . Finally spoke at 9.20 am but was told all appo...

If you are going to apply as Tier1 - would you still need a letter from employer ? I guess letter is only required if you are applying as WP holder as per the information available . thanks for the advice. i have converted to Tier1(general) from WP and I have not informed my employer about that. hen...

Hi nksg / blue.olive , I hope you have looked at another thread related to WP holders http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewtopic.php?t=37803 I am sure there are many more like three of us who were initially on WP & are now in Tier 1 ... can we do something like our WP friends ??? blue.olive, i am in...
