Just going through the new rules for visas and ILR. It is really pain to get the visa extension and ILR for those guys who have to apply just after 6th April 2011. Even application forms have been changed twice after the new rules for ILR. At least we have to be happy about citizenship that only the...
So far i realise my knowledge is not correct. But i have this statement from UKBA website. Can i have some comments on this please. As it says parents who are not settled and British citizen can still apply. As stated below - " Section 3(1) applications - children born in the United Kingdom to pare...
In the acknowledgement letter, in the UK Border Agency address (top corner), it has been mentioned as 'North West Region' in the second line. I hope this may be different for those applying from different areas. I don't know whether this may have any effect on how long it takes to process the applic...
Well, I tried my best to send my application before the fee rise, it reached Home office on 04/04/2011, but still fees is not withdrawn from my credit card. Usually it is withdrawn within 7 days……………. I am wondering has any one experienced the same delay in fees withdrawal. My wife's appl...
I applied through check & send on 15th March and received the passport on 8th April. 10 days were there between the interview letter and date of interview. I did not try any other venue other than the one close to my place. If you try you can get some where early also.
1. Just want to know whether, for my kid, can i directly apply for british passport. As the kid is born before you both get your ILR, your kid is not a British citizen yet. So you cannot apply for kid's British passport straight away. First Registration after ILR then BP. 2. Do i need to include his...
You are an Indian citizen until you take the oath/affirm + pledge. After the ceremony only you will receive the naturalisation certificate that you are a British citizen dated on the day of ceremony. Until then you can use your Indian passport without any problem. After you receive the approval lett...

They may ask are there any other adult living in the same property you reside. This question is after they collected information from the council and electoral registration. In the council tax bill the payer might have disclosed who are all living there. They asked me whether I have registered with ...
Under the News for the British Citizenship I could not see the new fees news from 6th April. Also in the general news and updates I see this line: Following Parliamentary approval, new immigration fees will be introduced from Wednesday 6 April 2011 for foreign nationals applying to visit, study, wor...
You need to get a support letter from your employer explaining why you were working offshore. Also if the salary during that period is paid here in the UK and you paid the tax and NI contribution here then you have good chance to get ILR.
Just a quick question for those who have already received their British citizenship. Do you know whether HO called your referees for checking? I am asking this question because I want to know whether it's an indicator whether they have already dealt with my application or not. I have asked my two r...

Anyway, the border guards can be told that u never get an exit stamp when leaving uk and when entering, u enter via IRIS system of automatic recognition! Problem...

If you are married then you have to mention that and have to give details of your spouse. It does not matter where you got married or where your spouse is living.
