include the following in your cover letter 1. the medical condition and reason an operation is needed immediately (i.e. impact of operation at a later date) 2. reason your presence required now/ during operation? 3. reason your son is in a different country and why can't he travel to the uk for the ...

@tknayak - as per UK Govt legislations, all airlines need to submit APIS Information on all international flights to and from the UK. This "can" be used in conjunction with entry records to calculate absences. There is also crude option of tracking thru entry stamp in overseas country. However in ab...

cheers Jambo. I thought NCS was one of the receiving authorities but they are not.

what sort illness / operation is involved here? Is it something life threatening condition or non-emergency? Medical conditions/operations do not necessarily guarantee priority in processing - depends on the case and circumstances. The same way NHS offers appointment for operations etc. Also when wa...

HSMP JR applicants need to show economic activity covering their stay. Normally last 3 payslips + last 3 bank statements + last 5 years P60/45s are are sufficient. Case worker may also ask for additional documentation but haven't seen any case where application was delayed / rejected inspite of thes...

No, you can't work in the Europe with an UK PR. You need business/work visa.

As per the guideline, application should check if s/he was physically present in the UK 5 years (/3 yrs) before the date that application will be received by UKBA or other receiving authority.

the application process is same as the 1st extension. at present there is no limit on extension - you can extend 1 or more times.

it doesn't matter whether you strike out or leave the section as blank.

you need to show economic activity during your stay in the UK - a lot depends on the case worker. normally they want to see p60s/45s covering the 5 year period + payslips/bank statements for the last 3 months. however, some may not insist on p60s/45s and/or happy with a few. As far as i know continu...

i recvd PR at croydon peo on wed 18/1 - applied under JR

which country are you referring to here? can you post the link?

e.g. India also doesn't recognise dual citizenship and one needs to surrender the passport once foreign citizenship is acquired otherwise it's an offence under indian law.

Yes, it was in person application at Croydon PEO. Don't think the case worker even noticed the discrepancy and asked for any clarification. Sorry - don't have the template as prepared a handwritten cover letter just before submission. Mention in the letter that that erroneously name and surname were...

LIUK certificates can't be reprinted and details can't be changed at the last minute / or at the test centre. I would include a cover letter explaining the the oversight. ...
