DO I JUST RING HO AND ASK CAN YOU TELL ME IF MY WIFE IS A PR OR NOT? DO THEY GIVE HER A ID NUMBER ETC? Now, how would the HO know about someone if he never contacted them before? How would they know if your wife has been working here for 5 years or just watched TV all day? EEA nationals get PR auto...
...I have read that childeren registered as British sitizen should apply for naturalisation when they turn to 18. ... I guess you are referring to the following text from the UKBA website: To be able to register as a British citizen using application form MN1 the child must be under 18 on the day w...
From the HO website: (scroll down and click on "How can you get your passport back from the UK Border Agency if you need to travel?") When you submit your passport in support of your application, we generally advise that you should not make any travel plans until we have returned your passport. Howe...
The HO is usually quite good in returning the passports when asked.
Did you try to phone them and ask for the status?
Did you provide them with a pre-paid envelope for the return of your documents? If not, it will go 2nd class and might take a few more days for the post to arrive.
From your previous posts it seems that you husband is already in the UK working and exercising his treaty rights so it OK if he is not physically in the UK the moment you land. You might be asked by the IO where is your husband and I would just say that he will arrive a few hours later due to his bu...
1. For me and my wife application, can I use my friend as a Professional Referee who is Director of his limited company from last 6 month but he is having ILR with Indian nationality? If he is a Director/Manager/Personnel Officer of a VAT registered Company, that's OK. Doesn't need to be British. 2...
I doubt the misspelled name would be even noticed. I know people who had the sticker on their maiden name which is not even mentioned in their after marriage passports and they had no problem. He will scan your passport and as long as you are in the system, the IO will just glance over the sticker.
No experience here with agencies. EEA applications are free and quite straight forward (in most cases) so easy to apply directly. It usually takes 3-4 months. You can always ask for your passport back if you need to travel. If your partner left the UK and is not exercising treaty rights in the UK, t...
I presume she worked during the 5 years apart of that short period and I assume she was looking for a job during that time. A job seeker is considered exercising treaty rights and doesn't need CSI. I would be very surprised if the HO deny PR based on such a short period without a CSI (especially as ...
Not sure about the passport as it might be needed as a proof of identity (if the passport is old, the picture is not clear etc) better to call the HO and ask. NCS might also know although it is better to check with the HO itself. With regards to the residence requirement, then she can ask for a lett...
I presume armed with all relevant documents I will be ok travelling to Ireland with my husband and back during the next 3 months. I imagine I might run into difficulties between the holiday visa expiring and receiving my EEA2 application though...depending on the staff on at the time. The 3/6 month...
1.Since,I am taking appointment for 3rd november,then according the 5 day rule I can leave UK at the latest by 8th November?(assuming the 5 day rule can include weekend) or is the rule for working days? it's 5 days including weekends. 8th should be OK (probably even earlier. it all depends on when ...
Your employment status has no implications on the application. It's the EEA person employment status that matters so as long as your husband is working you are fine and can join him. No problem.
Hi, I had my ceremony last Thursday and will be sending my passport application from Post office in couple of days. I read that it takes 6 weeks to receive your passport. I think i also need to send my current passport as supporting document. I can wait for this new British one but i must need my e...
Not trying to defend the HO here but I believe there are several checks which are conducted by the HO (or an external agency) before the case is passed to a case worker. I suspect that the time it takes to finish those checks (credit check, criminal record check etc.) is the main difference between ...
as students and/or self-employed. It's students and self-sufficient not self-employed. There are no changes from before. Just a clearer process and requirements from UKBA. Please note that if you have received a residence certificate (EEA1) as a student before today, they will waive the requirement...
My post is now confirmed by section 2 in the latest guidelines 1.3 Where an applicant has requested the return of documents and satisfies the criteria for priority, the application should be considered fully and a decision reached before returning the documents. 1.4 Where it is not possible to reach...
From Annex A in the new guidelines A. Acceptable evidence of CSI 1. From 20th June 2011 applications from EEA nationals applying for documentation confirming their right to reside in the UK as a student or self-sufficient person must show that they have one of the following forms of evidence in orde...
