Hi Gurus, Have been reading this section for quite some time and I think you guys are indeed informative and helpful. This is actually a case of my friend. Just out of curiosity, I would like to see any sensible next step for him in this case cos this might well be happening to anyone who wants to t...
Hi all, It's a quick question, but I can't manage to find the answer here. If dependent family member join me on EEA2 in UK, when applying for EEA4 after 5 years, do they still need to be financially dependent on me to qualify? What if I go to take a 5 year course and they live on their own income i...
Has he got proof that she's dependent on him? EEA Family members in the ascending line must be dependant on the EEA Citizen. He would need to prove this by showing that she lives with him in UK, etc. Also, why not apply under domestic legislation or has this been refused and if so why? Yes. His mot...
This is a question by one of my friend. He is a British citizen and will be going to Ireland to exercise EU Treaty Rights and wants to bring his mother(non-EEA) with him. After that he will come back to UK based on Surinder Singh ruling and apply for EEA2 for his mom. Does anyone know if his mother ...
I am interested to know more about the Surinder Singh ruling and trying to find some threads related my question on this forum but haven't got a clue yet. Not sure if some experts can help me out here. My question is, if a British citizen wants to exercise EU Treaty Rights in Ireland, does he need t...
The 3 month rule applies when your coming into the country. How about if you were in the country and you are a week short. 5 year workpermit switched to Tier 1 General, they stamped me a week short of 5th year anniversary. Question is can i send a postal application and if they take over a week to ...
Thank you very much guys. Really appreciate your help. I kinda agree with paulmu though that Annex B 2.2 is just a way of saying and doesn't necessarily mean that ILR cannot be granted if current visa is not due to expire shortly in this case. It just doesn't quite make sense because that would mean...
Hi Mate, Though from new guidance it looks that you are eligible to apply on 1 sept 2011 but i would suggest to wait till dec for ILR application, it will keep your apllication less complex. Can I ask you something about the visa expiry correction you mentioned. How did it happened, was that they f...
Hey Guys, hope someone could help me check out if I misunderstood anything. We first got our HSMP entry clearance on Sep 29 2006 but entered UK on Dec 17 2006, which means we have an initial gap of 2+ months. Our first extension was valid till Sep 29 2011 but according to the conversation between hs...
I also Entered UK after two months of getting Visa. I am short my 30 Days to Apply for ILR (i.e (28 + 30)). By seeing this, It looks I can apply for ILR after 4 Years and 10 months. But one point. It says, Case Worker may Count. (i.e may or may not be?) Wait for any senior member to comment on this...

You can provide them the royal mail bar code reference of the package you sent to UKBA. That is acceptable when an application reference is not available. Of course, that only applies if you sent your passports by recorded/special delivery :) I've called them today, but they can't find the case usi...

Anyone got passport back yet? I've been waiting for 3 weeks and I heard most got it returned in 2 weeks time? Seems now it takes even longer than a normal extension application
Please give suggestions. Your situation is the quite the same as mine, 1+4. Only my child does have a dependant visa stamped already. I sent out our passports last weekend and am still waiting for a result. IMHO, I don't see a reason why you shouldn't be covered by JR policy... For your son's passp...
Hey. Thanks for posting this. I think I might be in the same situation. Our initial visa was granted on Sep 30 2006 for one year. Entered UK on Dec 17 2006. Got our 1st extension which is from Sep 30 2007 - Sep 29 2011. We have a shortfall of 2.5 months to apply for settlement. Should I follow the s...
Yes I am running a business but I also need to go outside UK for business trips regularly. My question is more about what document is needed to prove these are business trips. If employed, I think the employer's letter will work. But in my case, will the employer's letter issued by my own company wo...

I need to go for business trip like 4-5 months every year outside UK, whilst all PAYE and business are going on as n...
