Its an incredibly vague area
So, its not taken as annual leave from employment, ie-quitting your job and going travelling for 2.5 months it wont be accepted as 'normal' leave and therefore could be rejected?

Thanks

Thanks
Is there a definition of 'limited' and 'good reason'?

I now have two more questions. .. 1-if I request my passport back from my wifes application, will it affect her application? 2-we want to go travelling for 75 days in the 12months before she applies for ILR. We will both give up our jobs for this. Is this ok because its less than 90days or will the ...

Cheers guys. I only found out abour the work trip just as about to send off and no time to get certified copy etc.
It actually gets me out of a work trip I didnt fancy anyway but just wanted to check
Cheers

Hi My wife has applied for FLR (M) today and i've had to submit my passport too. Anyone know how long they will keep my passport, is it kept for the duration of the process/decision making or do they send it back quicker? I will need it to travel for work. Is it possible to request it back without a...

I meant ILR of course.
Ligible ILR november 2014
Ligible for citizenship immediately after receiving ILR but wondered if there has to be a time period between ILR and citizenship

Does IRL have to be held for s certain amount of time before applying for citizenship or if legible to apply for citizenship just a few weeks after IRL then its fine?
Thx

Thanks. And section 12c we need to provide evidence of living together too. Should all of these documents be originals?

Hi
Under this section I need to provide evidence of finances including bank statements, pay slips etc.
How far back should these go?
Thanks

Hi, the link on the UK Border agency website isnt working.
I need to know what evidence of maintenance is needed when applying to extend the FLR (M) spouse visa

Thanks

Great thanks for this. Just one final question

Why Nov 14? Is the conviction 'spent' after two yeard?
I thought was five years?
Thanks

The court fine was nov12

She got a court summons. Pleaded guilty by post. Then got a £215 fine plus costs. The fine was from magistrates court for a 'miscellaneous railway byelaw'

Rail fare incident-got a court fine for 'miscellaneous byelaw' for unintentionally using my staff pass on tube.

Maybe it is FLR M but she used that to originally apply so thought extension was something different

Someone once mentioned FLR O?

Hi the conviction was for a rail fare
Ive been to see immigration specialists and she is screwed for ilr so needs to extend spouse visa

Shes russian

Ilr isnt possible and am sure flr (m) isnt ok

So which form is right?

Hi
My wife is currently on a two year spouse due to end soon

She has a minor conviction which means cant go for ilr

So we will extend her current visa

Which form should be used please?

Thanks

Hi

When applying for citizenship on spouse visa, does the applicant have to submit their passport with the application?
Is this then held for the whole time of the consideration?
Does the spouse also need to submit theirs?

Thanks

But does this mean when i start work in NZ i am then eligible to apply for NZ citizenship after 'x' number of years (have yet to read up o...

Is this something the applicant has to do as part of the application or do the Home Office themselves do it?
If the applicant, which agency is used to get the certificate?
Thanks

Jambo, thanks for the reply.
Even though her residence permit doesnt state 'family member of EU citizen'?
And do we need to show airline booking though?
Thanks

Hi, I'm UK Citizen but wife is Russian on a 2 year spouse residence permit but because her permit doesnt state 'family member of EEU citizen' she still needs a schengen. Confused no. 1 The rules of the schengen (Dutch) state: If you are a first time traveller to the Schengen area and you are applyin...

Hi

Before applying for citizenship must the applicant have held ILR for at least one year?

Or there no minimum, they must just hold it?

Thanks
