I've just done my wife's 2 weeks ago. Its quite easy now, just search for ilr online application, and apply online. Docs that attached were: Her passport, biometric, life in the UK, English B1 and 2 photographs with name written on back. Soon as you complete online form and pay for it, it gives you ...

I did my wife's online application couple weeks back, but wasn't really asked these questions of absences or their evidence... Also, wasn't asked about education details either.. just kept answering questions asked and in the end the checklist that came out only asked about passport, biometric, life...

That's my doubt as well. My wife has applied using Set (O) online and the checklist does not even include cohabitation docs although the paper form has it. I don't know if she should submit those or not, and if so, from when. Yeah let me know if they ask you to send any additional docs.. what date ...

Just noticed in another post that you can apply Set(O) online.. yayyy :D Have filled the application online upto the last declaration, and will fill the rest after 18th Aug when wife's eligible... However have noticed one thing, the information they've asked on the online application as faaaar less ...

And I don't want to send extra docs, just want to send what is required/asked. Now I've filled the Set(O) form but t...

But anyways, now her ILR is due Aug this year and on gov.uk, it says that if your qualification has runout, you can still use it if Applying to settle in the UK You can use a B1 lev...

Hi all, I'm a british citizen now, through T1G 5yr route. Thought I should start preparing for my wife's ILR, due in Sep2018. So was wondering what documents do I need and what tests is she required to give: 1. English level B1 test certificate (£150 :shock: ), is that correct? 2. Life in the UK cer...

God, u had a colorful history.. But anyways, yes declare them all, you should be alright. I got my approval last week, looking at the speeding fine I got through court as was doing 58 in a 30, so got SP30 and 6 points end for 2015, so declared that in convictions.. and went ahead with my ILR and the...

Passport office texts you though.

But they only text you for updates, like your passport will be with you in x weeks and stuff, not anything relating to if anything is required, right?

Hi all, I've just changed my mobile number and was wondering, if I need to update whether where I applied my JCAP from and/or home office? I applied via JCAP through cambridge council in April. I mean do home office or council contact you just via phone or do also they send you communication through...

I'm in sort of similar situation, got speeding fine through court somewhere mid-2015 and applied naturalisation on 3rd of this month

I mean, is good character requirement more strict in naturalisation then when applying for ILR? Yes, citizenship good character is much stricter and more rigorously applied. Oh crap... :( Thanks for clearing that CR001 So now I'm completely in caseworker's hands/descresion.. I'm and have been a rea...

Hi all, This question has been hanging on my mind since last few months and now that I've applied for Naturalisation, its hanging a lot lower now.. Now I got fined through court as I was doing around 55 in a 30 zone.. so got £550(paid same day) fine and six points.. and the letter said SP30. And tha...

Thanks for the reply CR,
yeah, there's a lot for silence on fees or rule changes, that's what is scaring me.. otherwise I can go ahead and book in April

Also, is there anything new happening this year with rules or fees in April?

Used to happen every year till last year, but last year as everyone knows, they changed fees mid March.

Hi all, I was just wondering in this modern day and age of NCS and JCAP, are there any warriors out there who have applied their naturalisation by post? If yes, then does anyone know roughly how long does it take? is it same as MN1 5-6months? Reason I ask is, I live in Ipswich and I'm unable to find...

He can apply for a visitor visa, but a successful outcome will be reliant on submitting evidence of strong ties to Pakistan in order to convince the ECO he won't overstay. He will be unable to switch to any other category of visa from within the UK while here as a visitor. In order to be granted a ...

@Casa, thanks a lot for that, nice piece of information...

Hi all, Don't really know where to post this, so if post is in the wrong place, seniors more than welcome to move it. The thing is, my sister is british national doing her PhD in Pakistan and living with her Pakistani national husband. Now my sister is here in summer break and she is planning to com...

thanks for ur reply... but there r quite a few thing flaky about this.. The letter doesn't have any home office case or reference ID on it. It says to comply within 28days, but the letter just say "June 2016" no proper date. It also doesn't have any contact telephone number on it. Plus it has employ...
