, not even remotely and no free access to the NHS. Please ignore that advise. It is wrong and misleading. If a person entered on Fiance visa, they are permitted to use NHS. If they apply for settlement before their visa arrives, then section 3C will be engaged. Everyone can use the NHS but some hav...

I know, but I don't want to go back to America without my husband nor do I want to pay another huge amount for an application, for someone's mistake. It isn't fair. I've read your thread on another site. As you are in the UK on a (now expired) fiance visa, your terms remain the same while you wait-...

SecretSimon sometimes you need to think long and hard about the things you say. secret.simon is one of the very few posters on here who obviously always thinks long and hard before he posts. Whereas as you and I dear obie, are obvioulsy in the other group - the ones that sometimes don't. Speaking f...

I don't know who this "PATEL" is, but I for one have no intention of helping you anymore "Brainy". Although I will read your thread and watch as you slowly understand the welfare reforms and realise what they will mean for you. Even if you didn't read the Welfare Reform Bill or listen to any stateme...

@Brainy Please post with respect or not at all. Abusing members simply because you don't like the advise they are giving, won't be tolerated on this forum. Thank you Casa but I really don't mind if the poster who calls himself "Brainy" gets it all wrong. As the saying goes 'If you don't like the me...

I requested experts to comments on my post and enlighten people with their knowledge who are going through similar sort of situation . Your opinion has got not weight and its all rubbish. Your are just vomiting rubbish out of your mouth on here. we talking about the glitches in the legislation whic...

The Austrian eventually will do what the Germans do, and as long as it is convenient for them to stay in the union, they will. Yes, that was what was expected, to do what Germany wants. Those Austrians wanting to take back control of their own country from the EU, was more or less the same as the L...

I wonder if this proposal will be included in the upcoming EU Brexit negotiation: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4000062/Swear-oath-live-Britain-Major-report-says-migrants-pledge-follow-values-soon-arrive-says-pace-immigration-communities.html Now, reading the article it looks like all mig...

I'll have what Obie is on :D And now on to the Italians NO vote. A massive kick in the teeth for the EU from one of the EU's orignal 6 countries. Can the eurozone afford to let the Italian banks fail? They hold a large amount of the debt from Portugal, Spain and Greece and the banks in Germnay and F...

I dont think you are getting the point there. I am saying there is only one procedure and one application form for all claimant irrespective of whether their partner is subject to immigration control or whether he/she is also british . They ask same details/signature from your partner which they ar...

They are part of their partner's claim.

Will the the new employer have to carry out a RLMT?

Respected Gurus I've recently got my ILR (10 year basis). Ive applied for my son's MN1 Application. I need to change my wife leave to remain category from dependent of HS Ent to FLR(M). I am not meeting 18600 financial criteria. I am applying for DLA (due to my son's disability). I have read that i...

What about opposite case? It dont make any sense in cases where your partner who is subject to immigration control earn nothing then what is the point of putting spouse and children in claim especially when they say that settled partner should claim certain income and housing benefits at single rat...

Entitlement to benefits can't be assessed without considering the total income in the family. And joint savings. One of the many strange things about Tax Credits was that although it is an income based welfare payment, people could have thousands in savings and still claim thousands a year with tha...

Nothing to do with people not liking Zac Goldsmith? Bremoaners seem to cling to anything.

Thnx for the input . Yes its true that universal credit is so complicated even the policy maker don't understand themsleves. Yes they do and the details of UC are already on the interent. It is much easier to have one income based welfare payment dealt with in one place, than having hundreds of dif...

Many people have opted out of appeal before this changes. The British sense of fair play? That is a bit of a cliché . When one sees the rate of increase in application fees, they may be inclined to conclude that the use of that term has been devoid of any meaning. . Perhaps we could rephrase the te...

what if my wife apply for a tax credit for work or child does it affect my extension. i am earning 29K annually whereas my wife earning is very low. As Casa said, you apply jointly with both salaries counted. You earn too much for Working Tax Credits as the cut off for that is about 18k For childre...

Hi, I am applying for my visit visa to UK. During my last visit to the UK a few years ago- I used NHS for a surgery due to which I have some unpaid NHS debts. I believe a letter stating the amount I should pay was sent to the address I was staying in. My question : 1) How do I know how much money I...

Found this Freedom of Information request 575/2013 Received: 5 February 2013 Published: 14 March 2013 Information request How will Universal Credits treat a couple which consists of one British Citizen with Children, and their non-EEA national partner/wife ETC who has “No Recourse to Public Funds”....

So now question remain the same for universal credit. Would you be able to claim universal credit if you are entitled to child tax credit and working tax credit especially when your children and partner have no resource to public funds ? would there be same exception for couple in universal credit ...

Thanks for your response Casa. Ohara - just so I'm understanding correctly, does "overstaying" in this case mean staying more than 90 days from the expiry of the visa (which gov.uk says is the legal limit, though I may have misunderstood) or staying at all past the visa expiry date? It is not OK to...

You did not got the point. I was saying that you get fixed amount of child benefit irrespective of your earning . You only pay tax charge if you or your partner individual income is over £50,000 so my point was that there are certain benefit which you can still claim even when you have this income ...

but child benefit has nothing to do with your earnings Child Benefit is an income based benefit. https://www.gov.uk/child-benefit/overview and calculator still offer child tax credit even if you earned £28,000 for last years . TC is based on the previous years earnings with a 2.5k disregard and num...
