Thanks VR

Be careful! No more strikes. It seems that more than 1 PCN in the 12month period before applying could be a barrier.

Dear All, I am really thankful for your prompt responses and support, I had two PCNs only and haven’t had any FPNs. I have never been stopped by police and given spot fines. The lady at NCS specifically inquired about PCN and HO advised not to proceed with the application. I am just gutted; I have ...

I keep pushing and it's finally paid off as they've agreed to change the guidance. Hopefully it'll be much more clear in a short time. It is worth noting that a PCN and PND are actually both FPNs. According to UK law this is what is described as a PCN A PCN is a penalty for contravention of regulat...

It's certainly an issue for the Home Office to resolve. However, as Good Character is perhaps the most complex and ambiguous part of the requirements (although others follow close behind), one should be careful how their character is judged. This was the same issue for suspended sentences until rec...

Actually, you'll find the caseworker guidance is ambiguous and a FPN can be possibly be read as including a PCN and PND. It is correct that people have not disclosed PCNs/PNDs but that still doesn't help with the issue at hand. The new guidance should provide clarity and is expected in October. Pri...

Dear All, I have used this forum in the past and must say thanks to each one of you for supporting and providing guidance to everyone who is in need. I visited my NCS (Harrow) today thinking i shall be fine with my forms and other supporting documents, only to be shocked. I was informed by the NCS ...

When did you (the main applicant) first enter the UK? This refers to the date of your first entry into the UK at the beginning of the period of stay on which this application is based. I think it's quite clear, is it not? It may be clear to you but not to me. Mine was working holiday maker and henc...

Thanks. NCS confirmed marriage certificate is good enough.

My wife and I have booked our NCS appointment in 5 weeks’ time for our BC application, however my wife is about to travel and renewed her passport with her married name rather than her maiden name that was used at ILR. She prefers to use her married name going forward. Is this an issue that her BRP ...
