Hi, I am about to apply for naturalisation. I read a lot of posts here. It's really helpful. My situation is I was stopped by police for using mobile phone whilst driving, but somehow the police couldn't find my insurance details in his system. Instead of issuing me a fpn for using mobile phone. He...

Please read the form and guidance AN. The answer to your query is there is plain english.

Thats true, unfortunately. In theory there could be ways, but practically any way around will be too cumbersome and full of headache. Whole of the trip back home would just involve dealing with legalities and running around. Not worth it at all in my opinion.

Only If your wife has Indian Citizenship then your child can get an Indian passport. You lost your Indian citizenship the day you acquired British Citizenship. Needless to say you cannot pass a citizenship that you do not have.

For extending a visa, you will have to approach ministry of home affairs office. Once they approve the visa extension then you take that letter to FRRO (foreigners regional registeration office), who will stamp visa extension onto your passport. I know where these are in New Delhi. FRRO is usually l...

What is your nationality? What is your partner's nationality? Is your partner living in UK legally? If not, what is your partner's immigration history in UK?

Gap upto 30 day is negtiable more than 30 days employment gap resets the clock This might be true for work permits but not under EEA regulations. There is no set time for a EEA to be exercising treaty rights if he is a job seeker as long as he stands a chance of securing a job. But how can we prove...

Check the french embassy website. Everything is clearly mentioned in plain english.

There is no need for child to have OCI status to visit India. You can simply apply for visa and travel.

Where did you get the idea that OCI can't be granted if both parents are Indian Citizen?

Actually its very straightforward to get OCI if both parents are Indian Citizens.

My younger kid is 2 months old, was born in UK and not holding any nationality or passport at the moment. Just couple of days before, I have applied for BC registration (through MN1) and waiting. Now, due to emergency we have to travel India this week. We (parents) has ILR and fine to travel. But, ...

Short and sweet and to the point answer is that both the incidents that you have mentioned do not count. Just forget about them and apply for naturalisation as if these things never happened.

As per my understanding , if I go over 180 days, I have to prove it was because of my business visits outside UK. I personally believe if I dont prove the case worker , it may complicate my case. To prove I exceeded 180 days because of business visits,I was told by some experts like you to produce ...

And why should I do the hard work, locate the information and provide you a link. The information available to me is available to anyone in the world with internet access. Do some leg work and find the information. When I can find this information on UKBA website in less than 10 seconds, I am sure y...

First can you please tell, where did you read that you have to explain 250 days absense?

Have you checked the guidance? The absense allowed in 5 years preceeding application is 450 days. As far as I understand, 250 are 200 less than 450 days. I suggest that you have a through read of UKBA website before asking totally silly questions. And if you really want to eat peoples brains then pa...

As mentioned by another member, parking tickets are PCN, not FPN. They simply don't count as long as you pay them on time. A friend of mine had dozens of them and got approved.

Also please keep one thing in mind which is very important. Once you have obtained the British passport for you daughter, you will need to apply for an "exit permit" from Ministry for Home Affairs. Without this the border control in India won't let your daughter out of the country.

The simple answer is, if the applicant didn't apply on a specific immigration category form, then the grant is outside the rules.

Mrlookingforward, in a case where one receives a court summons for a hearing in say...October but wishes to apply for naturalisation in September, must one declare a conviction even thought one have not been for the hearing? Either way, I am willing to pay the fine before the court hearing but the ...

Yes many people have, but not all convictions are same. Its not worth generalising all the convictions.

If the listed documents cannot be provided, then you'll need to wait until 2012. The listed documents are probably on file at the Home Office already, if the spouse immigration process was used. Also, you can get birth and marriage certificates independently. but still she have to agree he apply BC...

for any of these offences, did you have to go to the court? If no then you should be fine as long as you have declared them on your form. If yes - am not sure what happens. Does it make any difference whether you physcially were in the court or received 3+3 points on your licence counterpart which ...

Sorry you lost me there.
Have you stayed outside UK for more than 250 days in past 5 years?

With due respect and for the sake that you get the message and others in your situation get the message, you are asking something totally silly. Why would you go and submit a letter from the US company you sell your services for? Why? You are a self employed person selling your services or products....

I will mention the offences ... Do you think the application will be successful Your conviction will be spent 5 years from the date of conviction. No one can guess or guarantee the outcome of your application. Depends on the circumstances of your conviction. Generally speaking, if you have unspent ...
