Re: Visit Visa UK Embassy Email - Your UK visa application has been issued

I received CONCLUDED and got the visa. That analogy is factually inaccurate. I do not think it is correct. Based on what I have seen on this thread it is statistically correct. I am a sceptic of these things. Having seen 100% of people with "issue" email being granted visa, and about 99% of people ...

Online visit visa application submitted more than 3 months before travel

After submitting and paying for my mother's visit visa application form online, it then dawned on me that the guidelines state that one should not submit an application more than 3 months before the date of travel. Mine is about 3 weeks early. I have not booked the date for the biometrics yet. If I ...

Previously submitted biometrics

Do you still have to undergo the Biometric process during the citizenship process if you previously did it whilst applying for a different application for leave to remain?

Hi All, 10 years has elapsed since I was refused a student visa based on the fact that I had used a false bank statement. (application was made outside the UK). I was naive enough to trust a respectable family member who duped me with a false document. I have ILR at the moment and hope to apply for ...

Posted on behalf of a friend: I came to England in 2003 on a student visa. In 2007/8 I switched to the International Graduate Scheme. I applied again in 2009 but was denied. During the appeal period I got married to my boyfriend who is a EU national and therefore switched to 5 years stay as a relati...

Does the 3 yr legal residency period have to be continuous?

I am married to a BC. We got married in April 2009. I have lived in the UK for 6.5 years all of which was legal. I got my ILR in February 2012. There was a period in 2009 when I would say I was technically illegal as I had exhausted my appeal process regarding post study work visa. My spouse visa ap...

SET(M) ILR & Divorce

Hello Board,

This might sound like a silly question but I would very much appreciate your help.
If your ILR was obtained via SET (M) and you get divorced, can you still apply for citizenship?

Cheers

Not really. I believe my sister is only relying on hearsay. However, are you able to tell me about the discretionary leave to remain process? That is, the route to ILR? Thanks

I have a very strong suspicion that they are deliberately delaying the applications in order to mass migrate all ILR applicants onto the identity card system as a bird told me me it'll be rolled in starting April 2012. Just a thought
