Hi everyone, My partner, who lives in the US, has just been refused a General Visit Visa for the usual reasons - not enough of her own money and not demonstrating strong enough links to her home country to make them think she will return there. We are going to reapply, but I don't want the applicat...
how has she financed her education? and supports herself? if from parents/family - please also include include a covering letter from parent/family explaining the arrangement and their finances (if they are sponsoring the trip such as airticket etc). include the employment offer letter and also lett...
If you are travelling together with your wife, sponsoring the travel and other costs, then there is no need for your brother to act as financial sponsor. He can just sponsor the accommodation part. However please also include documents in support of your and wife's ties with Thailand - such as prope...
Yes, that's partially correct. SPs have jurisdiction to extend visas on certain circumstances.
He(You) would need to submit the visa extension form and certain other documents. However in the first stance please contact your local FRRO or SP's office for specific requirements and steps.
I believe your questions have been answered in the previous posts and am am not sure what additional information you require. As an applicant you need to review the requirements and submit the application. Refer to the links above for specific processes including documents, method of submission etc....
As Vinny pointed out in the earlier thread, refer to 46 46. As can be seen, the general provisions in the 1971 Act regarding leave to enter and remain are expressly stated not to apply where a person is a British citizen. We do not consider that it is compatible with the scheme of that Act to regard...
In person collection is an option in emergency situation on exception basis however I can't say whether they would consider your situation as emergency and allow you to collect in person as these are dealt on case by case basis.
The routes have been merged and in effect now.
One can't apply for PIO anymore - OCI is the only available route.
Existing PIO cardholders are treated as OCI.
It's likely surrender certificate will be required along with your new visa application.
You can easily get a surrender certificate as pre 2010 application is pretty simple and costs less money as well
That doc dont stack up! If I look at Naturalisation fees, it shows current (2014/15) as £845 and proposed £925. Where as Link below shows current naturalisation fees to be £906? May be I am missing something? https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/301380/Master_Fe...
Good initiative though it's not clear whether whether existing OCI cards would also be endorsed with "Visa validity - Lifelong" (or probably it would be by default assumed existing OCI cards also contain "Visa validity - Lifelong" status without any physical endorsement )
unless married to a british citizen or in crown service, one of the requirements of naturalisation is that you would continue to make UK as your main home. (Q2.3 of the AN form). if your wife lives in a separate country they may question your future intention of living in the UK after naturalisation...
no, that's not possible.
visit means short stay. If your parents stay here for 6 months it's expected they would be spending around same time in their place of residence before returning to UK for another visit.

This is primarily an immigration forum. You may wish to pos...
The joint application discount fee has long been discontinued. The AN form last page section 9 is bit misleading and no longer relevant. All applicants pay their respective fees.
Though the CGI and HCI website clearly ask applicant's to carry all originals along with self attested photocopies, but all originals are not always routinely verified.
Bit of bad luck for you
you may apply for naturalisation now subject to meeting residence requirements and other standard criterion.
as spouse of a british citizen you dont need to wait for 12 month and it doesnt matter the route you have used to obtained ILR
