Yes, there should be a way to rank the answers according to their usefulness. But many people won't even know what is useful and what is not. If they knew what was useful, then many of them won't be asking such questions in the first place. :lol: Anyways, For your child you will need this form. http...

I have posted the link to a UKBA document which says that you do not need to meet the requirement.

For even more concrete information, go and see your barber.

JAJ is going to give an expert opinion. But as he has already said, the answer lies in south african nationality laws. If according to south arfican laws your father became a south african citizen by default, even when he was not in south africa, then its end of road. If somehow he did not become so...

Very interesting JAJ. My eyes have opened up to how complex nationality law can be. After looking at your posts and looking at the flow charts of nationality, it seems the whole case rests on whether OP's father became South African citizen by default or not. If he did not, then OP will have right o...

Two different member asking two different question, or maybe one member using two different ids.

Can you please read the form and guidance. It tells you in very simple plain english who can act as a referee.

Many a times it seems that nursery kids are asking questions.

You state what you are.

If you are unemployed then you can only say your are unemployed.

There is no requirement to be in employment to get naturalised.

The fee documents shows a different form for children because for children there is different form.

Nervous applicants reading into different possible interpretations of guidance. These type of nervous applicants usually tend to be from Indian subcontinent.

A manager is a manager. A departmental manager is a manager. A non departmental manager is a manager. A toilet cleaner's manager is a manager. A restaurant manager is a manager. A manager of a taxi rank is a manager. Whoever is called a manager in a company or organisation is a manager. So, a manage...

Hi John, Thank you very much your prompt reply. I understand what you say. I was thinking of getting the documents certified by one of my neighbours who is a magistrate. But he doesn't have any rubber stamp. He is happy to provide his job ref number and his mobile number on every document. Do you t...

I must say that I never got chance to look at the full implications of change of receiving authority. But what you are saying totally makes sense.

I am filling out the SET(M) form for my wife, and was wondering if this was a mistake in the application, as it doesnt appear to make much sense In the section "Knowledge of language and life in the UK" it asks to tick the box "A letter from your partner’s employer certifying that you have sufficie...

Hi, Could you help me about referees for the citizenship (AN form)? Can you tell me which of these referees are acceptable? Currently what can see as referees are: 1) A despatch manager (used to be my manager) in a different departement in the same company as me. (British) 2) A professional transla...

[quote="need_a_tier1"]Is there a requirement to be present in the UK for 5 days after your naturalization application?[/quote You must be in the UK on the day when your application is received by UKBA. They mention 5 days because NCS usually sends out the application a day after you attend. eg. if y...

Thanks again now its making me some sense. So in islamic point of view my nikha should be ok and you saying that i should register the marrige with ragister office. Once again many thanks. Yes, you have understood it now. Religion is a matter between you and your faith. Law of the land is a matter ...

Thanks you very much. How do find out if the mosque is authorised to do the nikha. Can i get this nikha nama register in union concil in pakistan. Mant thanks I think you did not understand a thing. Union council stamp or anything wont help. You have to either marry her under Italian law in Italy, ...

Also Pakistanis and Pakistani imams are reckless and irresponsible. How on earth an Imam travels to Italy and performs a Nikah and gives a certificate? Why do things which are not valid under the law of the country? Why perform a Nikah which won't be valid under any country's law? Any mosque where I...

Normally or usually or mosque stamp or mosque imam or a church cleric or anyone else is not the issue. The issue is what law regards as a marriage. In pakistan, they will only accept a Nikah if its done by a Qazi who is authorised. According to Islamic faith any anyone of standing can perform a Nika...

What you "think" has no weight under the nationality law. If you read my post, I asked you nine questions. Once you can answer them all accurately, someone from this forum will try to give you a credible answer. If you are looking for a magic pill to get you a British passport or something, then I h...

You did not get the message. You will be refused. If you have money to throw away , please give it to me. I need it desperately.

[quote="Lucapooka"]You can apply from anywhere in the world. You will need a verifiable paper-trail of official instruments in your joint or individual names to a common address, spanning a period of two years. Your British partner will also require an income stream of 18,6K or more. Or substantial ...

You cannot apply for ILE for your son in India.
ILE do not exist anymore.
You will have to apply for ILR once he is here.
I aint sure about his naturalisation prospects.

Your wife is not eligible for ILE. ILE was previously given to spouses of British citizens/settled persons who had been married for at least 4 years and living together outside the UK for that time, and who were then seeking to settle in the UK. This rule was scrapped on 9 July 2012. ILE has never ...

It appears that financial requirements won't apply in your case, assuming child is under 18 years.

Please read section 1.1 carefully in this document. http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitec ... iew=Binary
