Re: Passport Application Discussion 2022

Does anyone know for passport application if it is acceptable for the Garda to certify the documents (original passport) when witnessing the identification form, or is certification by a solicitor/notary public necessary? Why do you need to certify your passport? You either send an original passpor...

Re: Mistakenly changed Visa category from PBS dependent to FLR M

1) I don't think so, what's done is done. 2) No; children born outside UK follow the path of less privileged parent -> your daughter can only apply for ILR after/with your wife. The simplest option for your wife might be to wait until 2025 when she can apply via 10 year route (assuming criteria are ...

Re: Need help to fill FLR(FP) Form.

We cannot fill the form for you. You'd need to do it yourself (or hire someone, but it's EXTREMELY unnecessary and may be harmful).

Re: GTV extension (only part of my new contract period)

Could you kindly confirm whether transitioning from the GTV to the SWV would reset the minimum residency period required for indefinite leave to remain? It will not reset the time per se as time spent on GTV counts for SWV, but as you'll be on SWV, which requires 5 years towards settlement, you'll ...

The most logical idea would be for your employer to sponsor you, you'd return to Bulgaria and apply for Skilled Worker visa from there, but they absolutely c...

Re: ILR Timeline Calculation 5-10-5 Year Route

If you switched to 10 year route and back, that means your 5 year period starts from scratch, from when you got your second 5 year route visa.

That might be a problem.
When I applied (October), they couldn't verify the cooy of cert -> if you sent a copy, you would've been asked to send an original anyway.
Hopefully they fixed it already, but it might still happen!

Your better option is to apply for a passport where you are/go to home country and travel back to UK with it.

The work permit is not sufficient to enter Ireland?
No.
You need to apply for a visa via your local Irish embassy/send documents to Dublin (depending on procedures in place) to get a visa placed in your passport. Once you have a visa, you arrive to Ireland on that visa and apply for IRP there.

Re: How long does it take to get the first time passport application?

I'm wondering if the current turnaround times are still correct. It says that in 20 working days a first time ppasport application is finalised. It's often correct, but! they tend to ask for missing documents at the end of this timeline, which adds another month. So gather your documents carefully ...

Re: Reactivation permit (no longer qualify for GEP)

Not an expert on GEP, but to me that looks like a way to essentially circumvent the immigration system - if we can't qualify for GEP, we will terminate and re-hire them under REP. They were already paid below market, as GEP was 30000. Wouldn't expect that to fly.

First of all, as far as I know, ILE is not an immigration status you can keep within UK. It stands for Indefinite Leave to Enter - if a person entered UK, why would they keep that? For a child, it's most likely transitioned into ILR, assuming mother is on ILR as well. The expiry date on the ILE is i...

Is there a specific reason in the application letter mentioning rules that you did not satisfy? You might be better off posting it (without personal information) or cross check it with rules yourself.

Legally you can't go through NI and you should go via Sligo. You're driving in and out another country that you have no right to be in.
