As your child was born in the UK then as soon as your are settled (granted ILR) she can Register as British by virtue of section 1(3) of the British Nationality Act, she doesn't need to have ILR or wait till you are naturalised. You should note that India does not allow dual citizenship. Thank you ...

I signed the form and put my bank details for the payment. however, i am sending my wife's passport and biometric card which has got ILR. is that going to be a problem or my wife needs to send it by her name...

Read the answers to Q32 again - carefully. I tried but could not think of a scenario, if you could explain it would be really helpful. I can understand the second point of the answer but that is not applicable in my case. Apart from that I am not able to think of a scenario where my son's stay woul...

My son has British Passport and Pakistani NICOP card. Can he travel to Pakistan?!

Thanks.

NICOP makes him a Pakistani citizen so yes he can.

Hello experts, My daughter was born in 2011 in the UK while I was residing in the UK on a Work Permit. I got her a Work Permit dependant Visa as we wanted to travel to Pakistan to visit my parents. In October this year our Work Permit will be expiring and I intend to apply for ILR for me and my wif...

Hello, My wife and I are currently on Tier 1 / Tier 1 dependent visas and we're both planning to apply soon for our ILR after 5 years in the country. We have two young children who were born in the UK, both of which are on Tier 1 dependent visas as well. Based on the guidance in this forum, I'm pla...

Thanks Amber. Hence, in this situation as he does not have any of those, what are his options: "Could he use his daughter birth certificate even if he is not applying for her daughter visa". In worst case scenario, he will get ILR but he would need to get Tier 1 extension for his wife and later app...

Hi guys, I am asking this on behalf of a friend. His ILR took a little over 10 months to approve, HSMP+Tier1(G) under SET(O). I remember reading somewhere on the forum that if the ILR application is delayed by a certain time with no fault of the applicant than he can apply for british citizenship ea...

Thanks mate so far. This are just the bit of questions I have outstanding in the Set (O) form: - Section 9 A5. You should complete the following table giving details of previous earnings being claimed. If earnings originated from more than one source, each source should be entered separately Q: Sin...

Yes, I know, but I don't watch it at all, laptop, phone or TV set; I just don't watch it, so even if they come and have a way to check, they can't prove that I watched TV, because I hasn't, so i can't be convicted; my concern was if they would reject it just if they were told that I hadn't paid the...

You need to provide some context mate. What category will you be applying under? What do you need these bills for? etc. Hi I am applying as Tier1 general and need it for cohabitation. You need to provide cohab docs for the last 2 years - not 5. Also the docs must be from 3 different sources. The on...

Hi As part of ILR preparation, I noticed that I could only find the following original copies: - 2009/2010 - 2010/2011 - 2011/2012 But for 2012/2013 & 2013/2014, they are not in original copies since these where sent to me when I requested for it. Would this 5 docs combined be accepted? You need to...

So far , i have asked this question to many applicant but haven't got answer yet. Reason for abscence : I'm filling in capital only 'PAID ANNUAL LEAVE/FAMILY VISIT' Is that ok ...

Do you not have any documents even in single names for those 7 months? Bank statements, credit card bills?..... You documents should spread over the the 2 years. As you have documents earlier (first 3 moths) and later (last 14 months). I think you will fine. You don't need to worry. Give documents ...

@Aqeel Thank You I am applying under SET(O): Tier 1 since Sep 2008 @Kevin Thanks I am not sure if I can find the contract. I have a few payslips (almost 12 months). I am not sure if the banks can generate the bank statements dating back 4-5years. As far as i know under Tier 1 G you dont need to pro...

Many thanks... I was concerned they might say you only have 3 weeks left on your visa, why are you coming back! - clearly I am being paranoid... Actually you are not being paranoid, they would have asked you these questions if you were on some other visa category like student visa. Since you are on...

Thanks guys My only concern is the new Dependent rules placed from 2012 onwards. which states that people on dependent visa after jan 2012 need to stay in uk for 5 years in order to get ilr. I hope this doest apply for the child born in uk This will not be an issue if you successfully get ILR becau...

Thank you my friend for the prompt response. Just curious and wanted to stay informed to help others. Can you please explain how does they calculate the 180 days period? They are calculated backwards for each year from the date of application. See Q-17 http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewtopic.php...
