This is a bit of a mixed bag - some areas are ok about it, some not. Different types of schools have different approaches. In our area, state schools more lax, but then again if you do not have place at a school for Sept 2008 you will not get one now. The C of E school demands birth certs, passports...

Rental guarantor is not third party support; it is a commercial back up for the landlord. The post suggests you do not have your own accommodation, if that is the case your application will be considered on the actual accommodation you currently occupy. If that is your parents house then is it big e...

You will have a negative immigration history and will not be allowed entry to the UK for at least one year possibly more. All depends on your circumstances and previous immigration status in the UK

US visitors are seen as low risk passengers and that is why the visa rules allow entry without prior approval even though USA is a visa nation.

It depends on how the care home was bought / transferred. If the company was bought outright by the new owner you are in the safe zone. If only the assets were bought you have a problem. This is where employment law and immigration law collide. Unfortunately immigration law overrides employment law ...

Does subject access request has any implication if someone applies for it before applying for ILR?

There are a few SAR requests from the 14 year illegal applicants once th...
