Hi, I am currently eligible to apply for citizenship. However, I have just noticed that my passport expired last month and the only valid document I possess is the biometric permit. Would anyone please advise if I should renew my passport first or appky for BC regardless of the expiry date . Thanks
This is really inconvenient. I was told that I can not appeal as well for my wife (please refer to this thread). I went onto formally lodge a complaint and initiated judicial review. That did the trick for me. It is a pain but well worth it. If no one else has a better solution then you might want t...
Just a quick one, I have written to UKBA for over a week about the confirmation of the valid from day and the earliest my wife could apply for citizenship, and am awaiting response. As soon as I hear back from them, I shall update the forum.
Hiya, Thank you guys and I am so relieved. Once again, I could not have done it without your help. My prayers go out to you. Sushmehta: It does have an issue date which says 21st of November (my interpretation is that issue date is for the card itself). But the valid until date is June 2022. There i...
Further to my previous post, the very next day my wife received the Biometric Card with ILR on it. The card itself expires in 10 years but I think perhaps the settlement doesn't, I would imagine that my wife would have to renew her Biometric card after ten years. More interestingly, the card expires...
I have just received the following letter. Which I think is potentially a good news perhaps. Dear XYZ Re: XYZ DOB Further to my letter of nd of November 2012, in order to process the reconsideration of your application of XX of June 2012, I would be grateful if you could provide your current reside...

Thank you for posting this letter. If only I had inquired for a similar letter like yours and attached it with my wife's application, I think the situation would have been much different. It is about educating certain case handlers. So we pay for a service, and we then make sure that we also educate...
Hi, I believe the most cost effective method would be to perhaps wait for the outcome of our application and see how it goes. There is ample evidence that judicial review and reconsideration has worked in the past, so if you can not afford to wait then perhaps apply now. http://www.whatdotheyknow.co...
I received the following reply from the same case handler. I am not sure what to make of it. Is it a time delaying tactic? Someone else in the same situation received phone call who confirmed that the case handler has made a mistake. Am I dealing with an egoistic.............? Following is the full ...
Oh that is a wonderful news. I congratulate you. It gives me a lot of hope. I did get in touch with lawyers who say that they have 10 years of experience etc, who advised me that I have little chance. I am ever so indebted to the people on this forum. I am just waiting for altfhn and then I shall em...
I would be so grateful if you could forward that clarification to me, i have sent you my email address through PM. I did mention that in the cover letter but I think the caseworker never opened the cover letter.
Hello All, I have written the following sample letter which I would use to send to UKBA to reconsider our case and also plan to post it to judicial review so that they know that they have their copy. This is where I would require your esteemed opinion. 1) Do you think this letter would work as both ...
Your wife cannot appeal! That doesn't stop her from complaining and demanding reconsideration!! Do so by writing a letter to UKBA, if you are unable to figure it out how you may do so from what is written in the refusal letter. Alternatively, consult a competent solicitor. Dear Sushdmehta, Thank yo...
