The one issue I can see is that you are married to someone who is living in the US and who has a green card and they are not sponsoring you. Whilst not illegal that will raise questions about your intentions. I am not sure what options are available to you to go there as a spouse, i would like to th...
Hi, I am going to apply for naturalisation (self + family) basis ILR obtained in July 2011 but back dated to July 2010 by HO. got couple of questions: 1. I had a drink & drive case in Jan 2011 but after blood test was cleared and got letter from police stating that no need to attend station on spec...
1) I dont think there is a Quota on the number of 'winners' from any one country. Its more about region. i think Africa gets the most winners but i think they also supply the most applicants as well. I believe though there is a cap on the number of green cards actually issued to winners from any one...
You could look at going as a Skilled Worker (points system) either through the Federal route or the provincial nominee, or even the Quebec sysem. the only drawback is that it takes a loooooooooong time to complete.
you should be able to apply whilst you are in the UK as long as you maintain legal status i guess. For Canada i suppose the govt website should be your starting point. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/index.asp not sure what your qualifications and experience is like but you may want to look i...
yes I believe that is right. in the past before the DS-160 online form, men aged between 17 and 65 (I cant remeber the exact range) used to fill in a extra form whe applying for visa. i takke it they have now transferred that to the online form
it looks like the 3 year period has passed so you should be able to apply. with regards to ties you are probably looking at permanent job, maybe property, family. If i remember correctly on the forms you complete for the visa one of the questions is about the whereabouts of your immediate family whi...
How long after you turned 18 did you actually leave? Also how long ago is this? The way i understand it, minors do not accrue illegal presence until the day they turn 18. So apparantely the clock starts ticking when they turn 18. Whereas adults would be be banned as follows Overstay for less than 18...
in that case its hard to see how your father can pass it onto you. not sure about the mother route as she was born outside UK. it might very well be that you may need to go the ancestry visa route.
You may want to investigate your father's naturalisation. Did he live in the UK at any time? If your dad was naturalised in the UK before you were born then it probably means he is 'British otherwise than by descent' meaning he may pass this on to you.
As a spouse of a British citizen she does not need to meet the 1year ILR requirement. She can apply once she has been in the country for at leastt 3years as long as she has ILR.
Why are you applying for the visa? Do you know that you cannot use the VWP? If so why? I dont think the OP stated their nationality all they said is that they are on Tier 1 and wife is on Post Study. @chidol4u, What information did you put in your application to support your case that you have ties...
... Not sure about that. I personnaly have applied twice before whilst i was on the old HSMP visa and I got it both times. Process is straightforward enough i thought Strange why did you have to apply twice...was the gap between two applications more than 10 years...US visas are of 10 year validity...
I don’t think you will be able travel to US, if you have UK tier 1 visa and as said by nionlight it is true the chances of getting visa to US from UK is also very less, surely they will ask you to apply from your country of citizenship. I have seen many peoples in UK who are suffering to get visa...
i think you need to investigate more about your changing your husbands visa to a spouse visa. with what you have said so far I am not convinced that he cant be on a spouse visa. You can have a look at the ' Immigration for Family Members ' section on this forum. op's husband did not qualify for a s...

have you looked Visas you want a B2 1.The advice from the embassy is not to book flights / hotels without a visa. It does in my opinion help to show that you have actually looked at the costs of hotels / flights etc by showing some itinerary. no need to pay for anything but you could go on websites ...
she can change when she applies for naturalisation. its pretty straightforward. In the 'name' section she needs to put in her new name and supply marriage certificate to support her case
yes you can change whilst applying for naturalisation. know someone who did this last year, all they supplied was the marriage certificate but also in the 'Additional information' section she did mention that she was changing her name
APIS - for everyone. ESTA - for all passengers traveling under the Visa Waiver Program. Where do I fill in APIS? Thanks for your help thus far. not sure if you are still looking for the answer to this. but API is usually collected by the airline you are flying with to the US. Some ask you for the i...
