Agreed, but a community worker, cannot avail themselves of free Health Care. Nevertheless, it is not Prerequisite for the issuance of a Resident Card or a Resident Certificate.

Dutch residents are required to have Medical Insurance under Dutch law, save for few categories of temporary residents and visitors. As Dutch citizens are required to have it, community worker will be too, as the notion of a National Health service does not exist in the Netherlands. The only way a r...

Yes, they usually request private medical insurance, NHS card will not suffice for that purpose. Was your wife working, before the pregnancy and child birth, as this might exempt her. I have written before to UKBA, out of interest, stating the fact the the employment of the non-EU family member, sho...

Good on you. Sometimes the lack of knowledge of UKBA staff can be quite shocking. It is abysmally low indeed.

Children born overseas to people with British Citizenship by descent , will have British Citizenship otherwise than by descent.

What i think it means is, we humans are fallible, and liable to make mistakes, and non of us can say, consciously or subconsciously that we have not broken the law in one way or the other. Even the politicians who made them, sometimes break them as in the case of the MP expenses that overshadowed th...

As Vinny rightly stated, the passport application has been centralized, and now processed in the states. The only question is, whether or not you will be required to have the 2 UK referees, or the Canadian equivalent will suffice.

I guys, i wonder if anyone has been through this process, of determining Home fees eligibility with a tertiary education institution. I have been getting conflicting information about entitlement of EUFAM holders, to non-overseas fees. Some people say, they have to pay international fee, others say ...

If you child's father was born in the UK, as you mentioned on this thread, then he is not British by descent, he is British otherwise than by descent.

Except, of course, you were unsure then, and now, information contrary to the one you provided about his birth place has come to light.

Perhaps it is time to put the matter to rest and move on?.....8) Agreed. Posts like this always tend to incite discord among members of the forum,on an unimaginable scale.

Meats if you read this OFSTED 2007/2008 report on page 7 of the first PDF file, you would realise that attainment at school and performance is directly proportional to the Socio-Economic background of the child and how privilege their community is. I can understand people being upset for loosing the...

Hi - I know of an individual who was working illegally earlier this year, before leaving the country. He plans to come back and resume his activities. I have some documents of his (fake passport, work letters, bank letters) that would seem to implicate him in an offence against immigration law. Wha...

Have a look at some of the people who drop out of school, a lot of them are from an immigrant background. Have you any proof to back this statement up.

The fact remains that Churchills was a British elected official, and not a dictator, and his victory in the 50s election, is an indication of widespread support for his policies, which includes the empire. Wanderer, i don't blame you for thinking African and Asian didn't contribute to World War two,...

I have not become the King’s First Minister in order to preside over the liquidation of the British Empire. Source: Speech in London, November 10, 1942 I think Winston Churchill was certainly elected by the British People. If he wasn't serving their interest, they could have got rid of him. It wa...

I think that lawyer is not entirely correct

I think our past greatly influence and shape our present and future. I could go on for a million years about the evilness of the British empire and how it destroyed and subjugated it subjects. In the part of the world were i originated from, the colonial masters squander money in the form of taxes a...

It looks like BMI has also joined the list, together with Aerlingus, of the Airlines doing visa Checks. I went to drop my friend who is a holder of EUfam, and the lady was insisting he should have a visa, even though he is transiting with his wife.
