As far as I have seen you can book the appointment once you receive the letter as mostly the slot should be available because it is only for biometrics. Thats was the case for my wife appointment in Hyderabad. 1) There is no fees but take two copies of biometric letter as VFS keep one copy for ...

No need to mention location as you can select the location while booking the appointment. Yes they gave a link to VFS where you can register and book an appointment with the reference.
vfsglobal.co.uk/Overseas/Pages/Login.aspx. You can register and keep things ready.

Thanks

Travel after submitting biometrics. ILR and BRP valid until parent and child have been actually naturalised, registered respectively. @noajthan - There is no issue in travelling after submitting naturalisation at NCS and before giving biometric. Just need to inform HO that you are willing to give ...

send it to both FurtherNationalityEnquiries@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk, NationalityBiometrics@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk. In my case a request to give Biometric overseas took 3 weeks to receive a response.

Thanks

Hi Sumitt, Sorry I just saw the thread. My wife applied for citizenship on 27/06/2016 and travelled same day to India so there is no issues in terms of travel while application is in progress. I emailed FurtherNationalityEnquiries@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk, NationalityBiometrics@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk ...

I am still confused with the query and the point that British passport is not proof of being citizen. Also just checked the applying for Adult passport and actually if the child is already having British passport then it is just renewal rather than new application as per below link. It do not ask ...

Yeah Sorry I guess my mind was off after reading the first half of message...........

What about applying British Nationality Status application and keeping it as a proof?

Not sure about the fees as unable to find it in the guide or form.

If your daughter already got the British passport and have Birth certificate why do you need to again prove her claim to British Citizenship?

This is the response I got from NationalityBiometrics team. You will have to enrol your biometrics details as part of the application process. If you will be out of the country for more than 30 days you may be able to enrol your biometrics in the country you are visiting. You would need to tell us ...

As Said earlier I am not an expert in this area so wait for Guru's to shed some light on the new Guide but from my understanding it was clear before and now that if you met english language requirement as part of ILR then you are exempted. If you have a doubt then take a B1 test and as per others ...

Hi, I am not an expert in this area and also about to submit my application next week. After reading the new guide I guess it is bit clear that if the language is already met as part of ILR. EXEMPTION FROM THE KNOWLEDGE OF LANGUAGE AND LIFE IN THE UK REQUIREMENT: If you have already satisfied the ...

Hi Gurus/OP, Sorry for hijacking the thread. I have sent an enquiry email to biometric team asking whether we can submit the biometric abroad after submitting our naturalisation application in UK. The reason for this post is my wife health has deteriorated because of nhs messup during pregnancy and ...

Hi Seanpa, I am also in the same situation and unable to get any cover for the period i served the notice in India. Question to the Guru/Pundit is it compulsory to submit employer letter for people applying on Tier 1 General or a self cover letter is sufficient explaining the out of country period ...

congrats.

Could you please let us know what documents you submitted for the absences?

Thanks
Raz

Thanks cs95tdg.

Any more feedback from other members?

When does your current T1G leave expire? This is to understand whether you could delay your ILR application. The break where you were employed and paid in India during 2011, is the reason I see a issue. Yes I too have the same concern, but as it is only 65 days (within limit of 180 days) can I just ...

Additionally, when you say you were paid in India during Jan & February, was this during your ILR residence period? I.e. 2011? Yes - as explained I had to resign India division(serve the notice period of 3 months :( :( ) and moved to UK in March 2011. I have started job hunt and luckily the same ...

Or do you mean that you were still paid the same salary that you were paid while you were ICT migrant (lower), even after you switched to T1G, up until December 2010? Yes because my company was not ready to move me and I had to resign the company and came back to UK in March 2011. After that they ...

Thanks for the response cs95tdg. No I was not in/out of UK on different immigration category and your understanding is right but the concern I have is the work from July 2010 to Dec 2010 I did was as an ICT employee(as the company provided accomodation and allowance so the salary paid to me was less ...

Thanks yash84.

But will my low pay of 5k(HMRC records) and 65 days out of UK during 2010-11 will it create any issue with ILR ? If case worker raises any concern then how should I respond to those queries.

Thanks
Raz

Thanks Venkatasuresh for cover letters. cs95tdg - thanks for the response. 1) what residence period (from date- to date) you plan to use towards your ILR application 21 July 2010 - 21 July 2015. 2) what visa category(s) you were on during that residence period. Tier 1 General 3) whether you were ...

Thanks for the response Venkatasuresh - after a long wait atleast I got some response feeling very happy......... :) Mainly I want to submit the employer letter to cover my gap of 65 days which was during the time I was moving from India firm to UK firm. The main concern I have is for the first year ...

Please can someone review the employer letter as it will take a bit of time with my employer to get a edited copy???

Thanks
Raz
