Hello everyone, I would like to change the order of my name in my first British adult passport which I will be applying for soon. My question is how easy it is to ask the HMPO to put my name in a different order. Not altogether but just replacing my current first name with my current Middle name. Se...

Hello all, I would really appreciate if you could guide me to the right direction. Applied for nationality registration MN1 for my 2 kids after we got our ILR. Applications were received by HO on 20 April. Today I called them to chase progress and they advised me that applications are still under co...

I dont know what the current situation is at Glasgow but last year my friend went there for his ILR (Emp + Self Emp) and they refused him saying they dont deal such cases. They offered him to accept his application as postal (with postal fee) and to be forwarded to the back office case workers in th...

Congrats mate and welcome to the club :) I had a great experience at Liverpool PEO too. I disagree with your observation that every case is referred to a senior case worker. My case was not referred to anyone apart from the only one case worker who worked on my file right from the moment it was hand...

Pleasure. Good luck with your application

By the way have you read the guidance? I dont want to cause an offence but I have always found the policy guidance helpful and never really needed to ask questions unless in complete uncertainty. In addition I know how to argue on technical issues being a part of my profession. Yes I was on tier 1 G...

I would suggest speaking to your credit provider and ask them to increase your credit limit on the £5000 one, no harm in trying and explaining your problem. If you have been a good customer, they might do it for you even for a short period. The other option would be to withdraw cash from your credit...

Thank you all very much indeed. Much appreciated

Hi Benneviss, could you please tell me how to attach a file with a PM? see I am not very good at the techy stuff

Hi again, Receipts are not necessary its just the way I operate my business. I issue an invoice giving the client 7 days to make payment. When the payment is paid in my account, I then issue a receipt on that date confirming the payment has been received. You are welcome and feel free to ask if you ...

Hi, thats just normal. You are doing the right thing. SET O and then Tier 1 G. I know it looks confusing but you will be fine. Thanks v much and good luck with your application

Hi, I was feeling alright to be honest although a bit anxious due to the fact that they can refer your application for further checks. Gateway is actually an arrangement set up between government departments for the purpose of sharing/gathering information. I know as I work for the Queen too :) On y...

Hi,

I went by train actually, had to stay over the night. But I could see car parks near by the office in the radius of say 5 minutes walk? I dont know how much their charges are to be honest

Hello folks, just to share my experience with you all, my ILR application was approved at Liverpool PEO yesterday with 1 dependant. The whole process took about 3 hrs but the case worker only took half an hour to deal with my application as I could see him doing all the checks, photocopying necessar...

Hello Help! My wife solely claimed for child tax credit as a single person whilst we're married. After two year of claming, they wrote to her to indicate that their records show that she was leaving with a man (thus me) and so they cancelled her child tax credit and ask her to pay £18,000. She has ...

I think he means Class 2 National Insurance Contributions that self employed people have to pay to HMRC

Congrats mate. If you dont mind me asking, was your self employment activity as sole trader or a company director?
