"Naturalization after three years in the UK as a spouse of a UK Citizen or someone settled in the UK"

Although cannot find a direct reference from BIA website

I had the same question but what I found so far is same as f2k said. I am sure there is more than that but unable to find it in the BIA website. I have my friend in similar situation who's wife joined him 2.5 years before ILR and both of them successfully applied for both ILR and naturalisation in b...

Hi, I have ILR status in UK and have applied for visitor visa for my parent from from India. I have emclosed all the possible document but made a big mistake on not enclosing my passport photocopy. Is it possible to email them the scanned copy of my passport by email, will they accept that document ...

This is ridiculous.

I should say NHS, Royal Mail, DVLA & Home Office are all useless organisation here.

Thanks John,

I entered 3 Nov 2003 and My wife entered 7 Mar 2005 as a dependant.
We both aquired ILR on 7 Dec 2008.
I hope we both can apply for Naturalisation on 7 Dec 2009.


If I apply seperately then I would have to pay double fees which I want to avoid.

Me and my wife intend to apply for naturalisation in Dec 2009 by which time I complete 6 years in UK. My wife entered the country in Mar 2005 which means she will be 3 months short to 5 years by that time. Can we still apply for naturalisation in Dec 2009 or wait for my wife to complete exactly 5 ye...

Aftet I got my ILR I was waiting for my Workging Tax Credit to be credited to my bank account. To my surprise they credited my wife's acccount with Child Tax Credit at the rate of £40+ per 4 weeks but no working tax credit at all. Upon enquiring I am told that since my income is > £17K per annum I...

Guys, I got question on this point "have not spend more than 90 days outside the United Kingdom in the last 12 months of the five-year period;" Is this hard and fast rule. If I am out of UK for more than 3 month(out of my last 12 months) for business reason would that be acceptable or are they very ...

Yes I am including my dependants in the ILR application and this is based on 5 yrs WP. I was in the impression that I dont need have to take my wife along with me.

Wanted to know if my wife and kid needs to accompany me while a ILR appointment?

Anyone knows how much time does HO takes to respond an submition of
Technical changes of employment
by the employer. Is there any contact where one could ask for the progress?

Existing LTR is deemed to be continous until the new application is decided. So he should be fine. No he is not fine. Otherwise OP wouldn't be posting here in the first place, HO has already rejected his ILR application. You are allowed to remain in country only if you have FLR application pending ...

If your application for new leave to remain against you new work permit was done after expiry of your old leave to reamin against your old work permit, then UKBA will unfortunately treat this as a break in your continuous residence while considering your ILR application. I guess not. Existing LTR i...

Did that include time to double check your answers (I am sure you double checked) ?

No I didnt bother to double check as I knew the answers we re right.
I overprepared myself for this and wasted few extra hours of my life

Just passed my "Life In UK Test" I think I over prepared it. Partly because some of the mock test returned incorrect answer which got me a bit worried. But the real test was dead easy and finished in 3 mins. My advice ignore any questions in any mock test which is not covered in the book (there are ...

I guess its better to start a new topic for someone to reply my query

Hello Mama, I think the letter you got from your employer should be sufficient. Here is the format of the letter that I got from my employer. "To whom it may concern: I can confirm that <full name> is employed by <company name> and has been since <starting date of employment>. He is employed by us ...

More evidence the market is dead.

Sorry I didnt put my question right I wanted to know if an Indian national can acquire EU wide visa. No, you'd need a Schengen Visa + additional individual visas for any non-Schengen states you wanted to visit. Execellent. But then where can a Indian national apply for this schengen visa in India!
