Re: Ilr 28 days rule

You pay the super priority, if available, when you pay the application fee.

It has nothing to do with ukcvas and is not a fee you can pay later after submitting and paying just the ilr fre application.

Re: ILR eligibility of dependants

Yes, it is possible to do that. Note that your ILR qualifying period has nothing to do with the date of entry. You should use the date of the first visa issue date to count the 5 years. You qualify on 16 March 2024 and your dependents qualify on 16 April 2024. You can all apply together before 14 A...

Thank you so much for your answer.

I've just realised that my wife has already stayed in the UK for more than 6 years under a Tier 2 dependent visa. Will this cause any issues?

She needs to do the SELT B1 English test or have her foreign degree assessed by ECCTIS (previously NARIC). Both cost the same, English test is quicker.

Re: Child Born in UK over 7 Years undocummented parents

No, parents cannot apply for ILR. They need either 5 or 10 years of legal stay before they can apply for ILR.

Once child has ILR, parents can apply for FLR(FP) Parent route, which will be a 10 year route to ILR (4 x 2.5 year visas).

Re: Passport stolen while waiting for naturalisation decision

You need your foreign passport to be able to apply for a British Passport and you have to send the original foreign passport with your application.

You do not need the BRP to apply for a British passport.

It is not your choice whether you can choose to use the IDV app or have to attend UKCVAS. If you have been told through the system to book an appointment, then that is what you need to do.

You could have applied for the UK born children as soon as you got ILR. They do not need a valid visa if they are UK born as they have an entitlement to register as British once either parent is granted ILR.
