Re: Are confirmed tickets a requirement for Visitor Visa ?

Hi,

Any recommendations for a hassle-free travel / health insurance provider (travelling from India to UK) to cover any medical emergencies ?

I know there are plenty to choose from in the market, but if people have had personal experience, that would be very valuable.

Thanks,
OR

Are confirmed tickets a requirement for Visitor Visa ?

Hi, My parents have visited me in the UK with a Visitor visa in the past and I am looking to apply again to bring them over to visit us within the next 3 months. Last time, we submitted confirmed return tickets when applying for their visit visa. Now this time around, the dates are a bit fluid and b...

Yes the maintenance funds can be from either your or applicants bank account. Read policy guidance notes for reference.

Yes this letter is a requirement.

Re: PBS Dependent Query

If you have your ILR, and your son was born in the UK, you can directly register his as British through MN1.

He does not need an ILR.

Regarding your wife's IHS, I think £600 would be correct, as she will be awarded another 3 years and it is £200 / year.

Re: Tier 1 PBS Dependent extension -payslips

You can apply on or after 1st October, no problems. You being unemployed is not a problem as the only requirement is sufficient maintenance funds for 3 months prior to application.

Your payslips are not required. Latest 3 months bank statements showing enough maintenance funds is required.

Re: Tier-1 Dependent extenstion

The set of documents in your original post look good.

Worth adding documentation (bank stmts, council tax, gas & energy bills) in your name too, to prove that the relationship and marriage is still existent. I don't believe this is mandatory, but worth including.

However you need to keep in mind, you need t...

Unfortunately, this isn't as black and white as that. It is required by one to destroy the BRP card into 2 or 4 pieces and then return it to the Home Office within 5 days of receiving the citizenship certificate, failing which a £1000 fine could be incurred.

Re: Can my ILR visa be revoked?

Really sorry to hear about your situation. Does seem unfair and unjust at this point. Since you have mentioned it was only for a couple of weeks, one would hope this would not be treated as a serious matter.

It would be a good idea to seek professional advise.
