Congratulations for your happy ending, Victor, and thanks for sharing the process.

Thank you. I'll tell her that's the way to go.

Hello For me this is a sort of gray area and would like some advice based on experience. I've got a friend who's an EU national and lives in the UK. Her mother is a citizen of an African country and my friend would like to invite her to the UK for two weeks. My understanding is that a family permit ...

I have read the MN1 form more carefully. I does not say the child must be know for 3 years.

Would this be the correct form (MN1) to use for her at the NCS when my husband and I take our own naturalisation forms?

That's correct. The three year requirement does not apply to children.

Eligibility criteria: EEA PR + 1 year. Language criteria met: UK LLB degree Nationality: Spain Method of application: Post Date of application: 19/09/2017 Payment method: Credit card Date of receipt by HO/UKVI: 20/09/2017 Date of acknowledgement: 05/10/2017 (received 09/10/2017) Date money gone off...

Congratulations! I'm glad that you obtained your PR document. However, if you want to pursue citizenship I would advise that you wait until you receive the SAR results. The good character requirement for citizenship is more stringent and it would be interesting to know why you had to experience thos...

Dear victor, By reading above, I came to the conclusion that you should immediately apply for your fist passport, fill application as normal, mention Your naturalisation sertificate number, get signed by two referee one must be professional and you will get your passport in 2 weeks or go for 1 week...

Hi

Is any one knows how long will it take to receive Citizenship Invitation letter from UKVI after receiving Approval letter. I received approval letter on 29th November (Dated 28th November). what is the timeline like.

Have you really read the posts on this thread?

As per the HMPO recommendation, I understand that they outsource the call centre, so not sure how valid is it. Anyway, it seems your cheaper option, a fresh passport application from the UK. The problem is that in your original application you supplied supporting documents that suggested you were lo...

Still waiting for the SAR to arrive, hopefully it will be here soon. I will follow your advice and send the letter to HO if there is anything for me to add. I bet you were very pleased with the speed that they dealt with your case, congratulations. Thank you. Yes, I didn't expect a decision so soon...

I think that your question has already been answered, but here we go in a different way: I 2012 the UK implemented into its domestic legislation the ECJ decision in McCarthy C-434/09. This was basically that EU citizens who become British citizens cannot rely anymore on EU law, including the right t...

I'm an EU national too and they haven't asked for any such evidence. In my opinion the request may be due to them having some doubts of your intention to make the UK your home. It is likely that if you own substantial overseas assets they may infer that you do no intend to stay in the UK. Have you p...

Great start to my daughters life, no dad. But hey , it's OK to let in Europeans that can't even speak English. Possibly because UK citizens have the same rights in the EU? Possibly because the EU is based on four freedoms and one of those is the freedom of movement for citizens? Sorry mate. It it's...

That's correct. Apply for a PR if you don't have one and then for UK citizenship using form MN1. If you apply before 18 it will not only be cheaper, but you won't have to do the life in the UK test and the English language test.

Yes you are right adinfernoes, but my point was that your application relates to September as well so , Iam happy that at least they are working on September applications very quickly and this raise my hope that my children’s applications will be sorted by next week or at least before Christmas whe...

I have noticed that, following members have got their decisions between last week and this week;

Adinferno
Ps89
talhassee
Nzshay
And now Pizza

Not really. My application was decided on 07/11. My update earlier this week was for the invitation letter received and ceremony booked.

Congratulations It is now confirmed from your status changed that Homeoffice is working on Saturdays if not full day , than at least half day. Thank you MYA :) I am not certain it means the HO works on Saturdays. From what I have read on here it appears that the website gets updated once a day at 1...

I almost can't breathe... my online status changed to 'Decided' overnight. I definitely checked last night after midnight and it was still on awaiting decision, so it seems like it was updated between then and Saturday early afternoon (probably 12.00?). I am so excited and I am moving out in 2 week...

Please you are not permitted to name any firm of solicitors on this forum.

That is something I have not done so far and have no plans to do.

Thanks `AdInfernos` ! This is exactly what I want to know ! if it is as you saying and my non EU wife will receive PR on the basis of that case then it would be great , but apart from that : do somebody know if she is ok to apply for PR in the normal way ? (I mean she`s lived 5 years in here with m...

Danval, probably you should drop an email to the home office and check whether they have been notified. Regardless of what the lady in the council has told you they must notify the home office that you attended. Otherwise how will they know? And they definitely need to know because if you don't atte...

Update here too. Invitation letter received and ceremony arranged for 9 January.

Write and tell them it will take more time to get the documents and explain what you can produce.

Advice greatly appreciated! :D However I have already submitted the PR application on the 08/11. I have sent the request for the fast track SAR today, looking forward for the reply to see what are on the notes. Do you think it would be valid to send another cover letter to add on the case if anythi...
