Hi shakeerahT, thanks for the info very useful. Just to double check, you are requirement to submit your passport when doing the online application? As in, home office will keep your passport while they're processing the application - and not just a photocopy. Correct? Original passport must be sub...
Hi guys, apologies in advance similar question been asked before but couldn't get any definitive answer reading through the posts . I will make it short. I'm a company director (and employee of the same company), I am paid salary/dividends . I've been on ILR for a year . In AN-Form, it asks for " 1....

Hi all I got ILR appointment in 2 days. I just came back from travel, HSBC latest personal statement didn't arrive by post as it should have. No time to order another, will try the bank tomorrow. My question is, if I don't include this statement, will only this payment be ignored when calculating pr...
Hi skk21 There's FAQ regarding this at http://www.immigrationboards.com/indefinite-leave-to-remain/faqs-english-language-requirements-for-settlement-t193792.html Bottom line, and if I understood you correctly that your question is about proving your english degree, then you need NARIC to confirm it....
Hi I am on Tier1(G) and applying for ILR as director of ltd company. Within last year, I changed my company address. The change in the company-house and HMRC was in Dec2015, but the bank only updated my company address two month later, that's March 2016. The bank statements for those two months (Jan...
geriatrix, thank you for replying. I might have mislead you with my question. Let me clarify. I am applying to "NARIC V&NS portal" for an "English Language Assessment" of my degree. I will provide: - Graduation cerficiate [contains: "xyz University is an English-Medium institute"] - Transcript The g...
Hi This is a question regarding the "Medium of instruction" that's accepted by NARIC. My university issues the letter stating my name, degree aquired, and date AND a statement in the letter saying "xyz University" is an English-Medium institue. My concern is that the letter doesn't state explicitly ...
Thanks Simon. I was initially granted Tier1 on 16 October, 2010. My first day in the UK was the 21st of January, 2011. Based on what you said, I presume that I would need to extend my Tier1 before April 2015, and then I would need to apply for ILR a year later, followed by neutralization as long as ...
Hi everyone, apologies if this has been discussed before but I couldn't find a clear answer on the forum. I have been living in the UK for 4 years on Tier1 (General). I am planning to marry my British girlfriend within two/three month - around March 2015. I also need to renew my Tier1 before April 2...
Hey Guys, I have just found about this. Can someone please help me understand my situation. Initial Tier1: October 2010 (2 Years) Entered UK: March 2011 Extension: October 202 (3 Years) Visa expires: October 2015 Am I correct to assume that I can/have to apply for extension before end of April, 2015...
Thanks mr_mar. I am just looking for feedback if anyone on this forum had any similar experience. Whether it's when applying for T1 extension or entering UK. To be honest, I still don't understand why as Tier1 visa holder and UK resident, I still have to apply for a visa to travel to the rest of Eur...
Hi everyone, I applied for a Schengen visa back in January 2014, which got refused. Letter said "justification for the purpose and conditions of the intended stay was not reliable." I had a trip panned in February and paid in advance, so once I got the refusal letter, I decided to apply again becaus...
Hi All, I had applied for a Shengen visa at the french embassy (TLS) end of January 2014, and it got refused. I had ground for appeal, and did, but got no feedback yet. Now I need to go on a annual trip with my company to Spain in June. Do you think if I reapply to Spanish embassy it can be any diff...
I have ground for appeal - that was in the refusal letter. Reason was something in the line of "Information submitted regarding the justification and duration of the intended stay were not reliable"
Hi All, I am posting this again - Possibly in the right forum. Long story short, I got a Schengen rejection from the french consulate in London around end of January, 2014. I sent an appeal against the rejection of my visa on the 14th of March, 2014. Till today, I haven't received anything from them...

Yes I can appeal. But the last person i know who appealed the process took him 6 month, and that's too long. Does it make a difference if I apply again without appealing?

Hi All, I am renewing my tier 1, due to some reasons time is a bit tight for me. HSBC bank statements take about 4 days, I was told by an immigration consultancy that I can use a printout from one of the banking machines inside the bank (That let you manage your account, print statements, etc...) An...
Hi, When I am trying to book an appointment for same-day service, UBKA website asks whether I require premium-service or not... I am confused as I thought appointments can only be booked for premium service? Provided that when I choose "no", I can find slots available. appreciate if anyone can clari...
