you are ok with most UK insurers, that is a grey area so as long as there is some insurance you are fine! as regards the studies, why are you so concerned about the course? it is not the course which makes her a qualified person but rather the CSI during the studies and sufficient funds, which are t...
thanks for your reply. that website made me very unsure, its nt german though. i felt a bit discouraged, but your reply is lifting my spirits again. yes he's got the brit RC as eea family member, we fought for it in an appeal. partnership nearly6 years, and we are now expecting a baby. as evidence,...
look, she can enter as a non-visa national and you give notice to registrar and 15 days later get married http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Governmentcitizensandrights/Registeringlifeevents/Marriagesandcivilpartnerships/DG_175717 there is no difference where you get married, in the UK or Israel. Any legal...
ok, unless you have an adverse immigration history and the marriage followed a recent visa refusal etc. all you have to submit is the following: 1. your EEA national's ID/passport; 2. proof of her exercising treaty rights (letter from employer, 3 recent payslips, contract of employment etc.) (if not...
Hope someone will correct me if I'm wrong: 1. My partner is pregnant & she is on maternity leave. I would like to know for how long she can be on maternity leave? http://www.adviceguide.org.uk/england/work_e/work_time_off_work_e/maternity_leave.htm gives a good idea about it. I regard a woman on a m...
doubt the UKBA has any way of checking you are out of the UK on that Monday/Tuesday they receive your papers. Have NEVER heard of anyone having that problem so it may simply be a quirk of the law which isn't enforced in practice. The bit with you being in the UK 3-5 years before your application is ...
right, feel like a right numpty i sent my AN form with supporting documents and fee, however i made a mistake while filling the payment slip....i filled everything correctly but you know where it says delete as appropriate on card type... i didn't delete any and left all 4 options ( i know, i shoul...
if your unmarried partner has a RC then you could be able to travel together as one Member State recognised your relationship and you have a point to argue at the border. If your partner does NOT have a RC issued and he is in the UK in a different category, I doubt the border police on the French si...
how about you pay the £16 but under protest and then keep claiming the illegality the way you are now? Sometimes in life you have to be more tactically aware. The embassy don't care whether or not you make a point, now, later or never. So, pay the £16 service charge and then claim it back. If the Ge...
jambo's answer pretty much says it all. But to confirm, I spoke to someone recently over the phone and they reassured me (as per the IPS form guidance) that there is no need to put the grandparents' details in if one is applying on the basis of naturalisation, the only time grandparents' details are...
it is annoying to say the least to see you acting so thick. anyway, if I were you, I would still go for the NCS appointment as they only take copies of all your documents and in all likelihood will ignore your lamination. Therefore, when the UKBA get your application, it will show copies of your mar...
A solicitor maybe?? :D :D :D hahahaha we all have the same understanding of what's right and wrong. The problem is, many people do not say the ways people deal with the UKBA out loud and rather brush everyth under a rug, while all I am saying is that IF NEED BE there are ways people do create an im...
The regulations are quite clear. To qualify as an extended family member (OFM) dependency or household membership must be shown in the country from which the person came. To obtain a RC as an OFM you must first be an OFM which is an almost de facto state if family permit has been obtained. Sneaking...
1) no difference how they came to the UK, even if in a bath tub over the Channel, so long as they qualify for residence once here. In only VERY VERY limited circumstances can illegality cause a refusal and that is in cases of public health and safety matters etc. which is clearly not the case in 99....
hi, someone applied for a Schengen visa and then got British Passport. They don't want their fingerprints and picture on those VIS and SIS databases. Is there any way they can have those removed from the database and how long will the process take? The Schengen visa was obtained in August 2012 at th...
ok, don't worry about it, just expressed my immediate opinion on the protracted, repetitive post leading nowhere but to the same old conclusion of HO incompetence and mess.
Why would your lawyer possibly lie to you? Obviously she wouldn't at all. I was wrong to think that, she is a good woman, so ok then why the HO representing officers tell me that and then after me she call my lawyer and tell her different story!!!(to convince me not to go to court as I will lose an...
Thanks guys! I thought so about settlement process being difficult as the father has had no input AT ALL apart from bery rare cases of transferring money and sending gifts. Considerin the law stays the same, the father does not mind the kid coming over to do GCSEs later. Would obtaining a student vi...
Thx Jambo! For the child to come and live in the uk without time restrictions (as per the document) he would need an ILE/ILR but what is the law regarding the child like this getting one? He could only obtain a tourist visa and then apply from within the country? How shall they proceed as you unders...
dear all, pls shed some light. father- political asylum seeker from Russia, obtained British citizenship 2-3 years ago and is never going back to Russia. In Moscow, he had left his child before coming to the UK and he divorced the child's mum. The child is 10 years old and lives with his mum in Mosc...
In one of the casework instruction chapters it clearly says that if euther the applicant's declaration (signature date) or referee's signature are over 6 months old, they may ask to redeclare/resign as circumstances may have changed so 6 months is the cut off date, which in almost all cases should n...
...sigh... It is not a new rule, one may apply for naturalisation upon obtaining ILR if married to a brit and satisfies residence requirements. The questions is- how will that person obtain ILR in the first place! Not that they can apply to naturalise, ilr is more difficult per se.
Hi, just a quick scenario for those knowledgeable with the EC law. - An EEA national with PR left the UK to go back to their country of residence. - Her parents-in-law were issued Residence Cards on the basis of being dependent family members of that EEA national's spouse (basically EEA is married t...
Hi, I have passed the life in the UK test last year and used my certificate to apply for ILR. I need to apply for citizenship and I have list my Life in the UK test certificate, could you advise what need to be done? take the test again or no need? Thanks, contact the test centre which issued it an...
they should automatically send a covering letter, but most of the times they mistakenly send a generic letter saying you are still a family member of an EEA national and should anything change you must notify them. You should ensure that if you get that type of wrong letter you contact them asap and...
