There's no requirement for MN1 to have any kind of "health surcharge", I believe you mean IHS - that's only for visa holders. You will need to arrange a private insurance policy for your child until she has been registered as British, this is not part of IHS or mandated for MN1 or for nationality ap...

And IHS term cannot be chosen, it’s due for the term of the visa, which of course is not required for a UK born child.

You wouldn’t get refused on this error.

Of interest to German members of this forum: The Federal President has signed the law enacting the changes to the German Citizenship Law and it was published officially on 26 March 2024 in the Federal Law Gazette. https://www.recht.bund.de/bgbl/1/2024/104/VO.html (in German only). This will, amongst...

Can I still apply for citizenship even my husband divorced me? As I have to save some money for this.

Naturalisation is not an immigration application, there's no dependent concept in citizenship.
All applications are assessed individually.

These are questions you don't have to answer, if there's nothing you wish to raise the "n/a" would be sufficient, or refer to your covering note. Agreed they are a bit confusing. There are no templates for covering letters as they are not required, but you are free to add one with your documents. Ad...

Hello, Just a couple of questions: does an applicant's passport need to be valid for a certain time when applying for naturalization? What if a passport is expiring in a month, for example? There's no validity requirement for passports - expiry during process is not an issue. The other question is:...

Until you have attended the ceremony you are still under ILR and use your BRP to prove it - you are only British after the ceremony. No issue with immigration. Suggest you contact your council ASAP and ask to book around your hols - they may also offer private ceremonies (for a fee) if dates are dif...

Adding friend as director is not an issue.
Not sure why you think it may be an issue. It’s your company….

We can’t recommend or endorse any professional advisors. This is against the forum rules.

Include both passports for the five year period.

Haven't come across this problem before but perhaps taking a photograph of the form and load that? That may be better than scanning it?

Not something governed by UK immigration rules, but in the event you have to seek medical help in an EU country you probably will be asked to show your passport, in addition to the GHIC card. Your other documents are unlikely to be accepted as ID. The NHS Issuing Office may also ask for a copy of yo...

Can't really answer from the Irish perspective ... but as far as I know British citizens are covered by the Common Travel Area (CTA) provisions, they didn't have a need to exercise EU Treaty Rights, either before or after brexit. Certainly for naturalisation they need to satisfy the residency requir...

Civil penalties can be given for all kind as issues - as explained already they are not criminal offences, not even for late tax penalties. They are a fact of life, just like paying too little or too much tax at times. If you are evading tax that's a criminal offence and you are likely facing court ...

You can complain but unless it’s seriously damaged it’s unlikely they’ll pay to replace it.
Go to the complaints page on the HMPO website.
Complaints: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisat ... -procedure
Don't call - fill in the complaint form online!

These general type questions draw in spammers!

The visa needs to be valid for the whole stay - visa holder is expected to leave by the last valid date. As far as I know there's no "free" add-on.

You can usually start working immediately after receiving your decision letter, but there are a few factors to consider. First, it is important to ensure that the decision letter confirms your status and permission to work in the country. Secondly, if you have an application for permanent residence...

The statement you quoted relates to visitors only.
You are a resident and visa holder and your passport has to be valid on entry to the UK.
The fact it may expire the following week doesn't invalidate your visa.

They can and sometimes do ask for clarification or additional documents but unless you think there’s an issue I wouldn’t add additional docs.

A few questions about uploading documents supporting 5 years' residency: 1. Would 2 docs for each year be enough (P60s from employer plus student finance, for each year). I'm also adding letter from employer, landlord+tenancy agreement and confirmation of college course. I think that should be enou...

After applying, when can you travel again without messing it up? Many thanks for the stream of kind replies You are free to travel after submitting application, but biometrics and ceremony need to be done in the UK. You are still an ILR holder with BRP until you are British - naturalisation isn't p...

What he needs to show is that he will leave the UK at the end of the visa. He’s young, a student, lives with parents, not much money, what are his ties to home country? Workshop aspect is not really relevant, parents pay the rent. From your post the entry officer will probably assume he might not re...

No - IHS is not required for visitor visas. Visitors are not residing in the UK.
