Thanks CR001 for the quick reply.
I will email saying that I wish to have my name consistent with my passport.

I got an email today from the case worker regarding my name in my passport. It says my name in the passport is given as surname - (nothing given) and given names xxxx yyyy. In the naturalisation application form I have put as surname yyyy and other names as xxxx. I have copied the rest of the email ...

This salary is based on 37 hours (source:Migration Advisory Committee)

i think it should be 40 hours.... it looks like 37 hours is only for electrical engineers (national grid submission to MAC). Please double check though.

My family has been granted ILR status about a month back. My wife does not have a National insurance number yet as she hasn't worked so far. We are planning to apply for tax credits. Is it ok to make a joint claim with just my NI number? Can we make the application without the NI number for partner?

Relax! It is indeed as you have described. You will get your brp shortly anyways

Hi ,
My kids were not born in UK and they were on Tier2 dependent visas. If they were born here, then no need to include them in ILR as you say..

update: received all BRP's today. Within 2 days!

Kais -As per guidance only one payslip and one bank statement is required, both no older than a month. I submitted the last 3 payslips, because I had them with me readily available. So it is upto you -- strictly speaking for Tier 2 G only one which is the latest is required.

Hola - my job title hasn't changed.. and as I mentioned I didn't have any sort of interaction with the case worker. If I remember correctly the sponsor rules: if the SOC code doesn't change then a change of employment is not required. Perhaps only needed to update UKBA regarding this and no need to ...

Our ILR application was granted at Liverpool yesterday. Hats off to all forum members and moderators for this great forum! Keep this going. Been on Tier 2 G all 5 years and applied together with dependants. Appointment was at 11 am....reached PEO very early at 9.30am...was let in without any problem...

Thanks! I will take 4 yr HMRC history/ P60's as backup and will submit only if asked. I am taking only the latest pay slips for 3 months. My employer letter is very similar to the one here: http://www.immigrationboards.com/indefinite-leave-to-remain/employer-letter-income-threshold-wp-tier-2-t76413....

I have ILR appointment coming up later this month along with wife & 2 kids. Have been on Tier 2 (gen) since beginning. - One Set (O) form for all 4 applicants - 2 photos each - Four Passports - 3 BRP's + 1 Entry clearance visa vignette in passport (younger child born in India and obtained PBS depend...

I am no expert... but I think this is fine. It is continuous leave that matters. Even the main applicant is allowed 180 days out of uk, for dependent there is no such written restrictions. As long as she has lived in total 2 years and you can show your marriage certificate (subsisting marriage) and ...

In case your degree is not awarded points in the PBS calculator: You can provide a letter from university stating that your masters degree is taught in english, along with a NARIC statement of comparibility. http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/visas-immigration/settlement/knowledge-language-life/demon...

Hi, The salary threshold for CODE 2119 seems to be £26,000 for experienced worker (more than 3year 1 month experience). Please double check. These pay thresholds apply to all other Tier 2 applicants, including those who were previously classed as new entrants when they apply to extend their total st...

I think there is unnecessary confusion here. It is very clear from what I posted above from UKBA website as to the requirements now If you have a degree taught in English: A printout from the points-based calculator confirming the equivalent level of your degree and the level of English; or If your ...

It is upto the way one interprets it. Had a search in the forum and the majority seems to concur that it is SOC code salary and hour details that need to be put in here and not the person's actual salary and hours. http://www.immigrationboards.com/indefinite-leave-to-remain/ilr-query-t113433.html ht...

Hello: I am currently on Tier1 General. I am now eligible for ILR. For knowledge of English I need some clarification for me and my wife. a) For my application, can I still use 'degree taught in English' as evidence of English Language which I had successfully used in my previous application for Ti...

(4) Also to be on safer side, I have obtained UK NARIC letters for me & my wife (costed £50 per applicant).

Can you please confirm if you submitted NARIC statement of comparibility or NARIC english language assessment? Also did you submit any PBS calculator print out?

Amber, params

Won't the university letter regarding medium of instruction suffice in addition to naric statement of comparibility? Is NARIC english language assessment required?

(b) 1. Statement of compatibility from NARIC and medium of instruction letter for main applican & points based calculator print out. 2. Statement of compatibility from NARIC and medium of instruction letter for dependant. congrats drdh4 on getting ILR for your family. You mention Statement of compa...

Thanks wpilr_nov12! I think this statement in FAQ needs correction. It gives the impression that 90 day concession only applies if the current leave expires before completing the 5 year qualifying period. Under current directions you must apply for extension before your current leave expires. The on...

I have been on Tier 2 (gen) visa since beginning. Visa valid from : 24 March 2009 Date of entry : 26 March 2009 Current Tier 2 visa expiry : 13 April 2014 I wanted to book an appointment at the earliest opportunity..... so wanted to double check if the earliest I can apply is 28 days before 24 March...
