I am not a lawyer, keep that in mind. I am interpreting it in it's plain meaning.

I think it means that the offence that you were convicted of can or does carry a prison sentence is enough, even if you don't actually serve time for it.

It is explicitly stated in both the Form AN guidance and the Form MN1 guidance in identical language. We will not usually accept a referee who has been convicted of an imprisonable offence during the last 10 years The absence of the table may just mean that the two guidances have been updated, but t...

If yes, you can directly apply naturalization for your children, bypassing the ILR process.

I disagree.

Because this situation is caused by a recent change to the Indian government's interpretation of Indian law, it is a known unknown. It is worth noting that stateless children born in the UK and stateless adults living in the UK can register or naturalise only after at least five years of residence i...

If the child is born on or after the date of naturalisation, then yes, the child will automatically be a British citizen by descent if born outside the UK. But the child will not be able to automatically pass on British citizenship to their own children if those children (your grandchildren) are bor...

Children born abroad follow the same immigration status as the second parent and can apply for ILR along with the second parent, regardless of whether the child themselves have completed five years residence or not.

To build on contorted_svy 's answer above, you can travel while the application is in progress. If you get a successful response, you need to contact the local council within 21 days and attend the naturalisation ceremony in the UK within 90 days. After that, there are many actions that you will nee...

can anyone give a guarantee Anonymous strangers on a web forum aren't the best people to seek guarantees from. We can guide based on the guidance published by the government, but none of us (to the best of my knowledge) work for the Home Office and certainly can't give you a guarantee on their beha...

I don’t know if the situation is different to the OP as SA nationals need a visa to travel to the UK. It is. A non-visa-national can get onto a flight and get to the UK border to make her arguments to a UK border official. A visa national will not be allowed to get onto a flight to the UK by the ai...

Just confirming that the children in question are from a previous marriage and you had divorced your previous spouse? What is the answer to this question? Were you at any stage in a polygamous marriage? That is to say, at any time, did you have two spouses, whether in the UK or abroad? Also see Rul...

3421 graphic designers, which is a shortage occupation, so the Immigration Skills Charge does not apply, That may not be completely accurate. The list of occupation codes for which there is no Immigration Skill Charge is quite short and not tied to the whole Shortage Occupation List. You will not h...

My wife is having UK ILR. Our Child is born in the UK

Was the child born in the UK before or after the date your wife got ILR?

Please expand on your answer "ILR generally requires five continuous years." In which situation can the five years be separate then ? Some immigration routes, such as Global Talent or Innovator or Start-up, allow for ILR in less than five years if specific conditions are met. Therefore I generalise...

2016 my wife was on 5 year spouse route. 2019 extension: my wife was moved against her will to 10 year route. 2022 extension: my wife was back on the 5 year route. Presumably the first and last LRs were FLR(M) and the one in the middle was an FLR(FP) because she failed to meet one of the requiremen...

Heard, that with the EU ppassport it will be easier to get a job in the EU. That is correct. But the EU itself does not issue the passports. An "EU passport" is a passport issued by a Member-State of the EU . If you hold the passport of any EU Member-State, or even of any EEA Member-State (EU+Norwa...

How old are the children?

The child will have an entitlement to register as a British citizen when either one parent gets ILR, because they were born in the UK. Their UK immigration status does not matter.

So your child can be registered as a British citizen regardless of whether their BRP has expired or not.

My little brother...is 27 years old and still studying art at a university. He lives with his parents.

He, a single unemployed male with little or no strong connection to his home country, is highly unlikely to get a visit visa. He should be prepared for a refusal.

At the same time, what prevents the OP applying for an indian visa based on his indian spouse, as he has already done? The OP needs to meet both the eligibility requirements listed The OP has multiple ways to apply for Indian residency , perhaps through OCI (Overseas Citizenship of India, essential...

I had not come across a statelessness application on these forums before, so I had to research. It is possible that you could apply to stay in the UK as a stateless person , after arriving in the UK (i.e. you can't apply from abroad). And this application seems to be very advantageous. It is a five ...

do i need to pay IHS health surcharge if i apply visit visa for my parents about a year or more than year about 2 , 5 or 10 years ? No, because no single trip on those visas should exceed six months in the UK. A 2, 5 or 10 year visit visa essentially makes the holder the equivalent of a non-visa-na...

Your ex can make as many allegations as she wants on the assumption she wants to implicate herself too. To expand further on that, at least under the EEA Regulations, a "marriage of convenience" requires both parties to have been aware that it was purely for immigration purposes and not a real subs...

A child born abroad is eligible for registration under discretion when either (a) both the child and one parent has ILR AND the other parent is a British citizen, or, (b) the child has lived for ten continuous years in the UK and is still under the age of 18. As CR001 has mentioned, your child is no...

You should definitely check with your local council about your mobility issues and chronic illnesses. They may be able to make appropriate adjustments, such as making sure that the venue is accessible to those with your specific mobility issue, etc. But, to the best of my knowledge, there is current...
