It looks like it needs to be "City & Guilds International ESOL (IESOL) Diploma" http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitec ... -tests.pdf

Congratulations! Have a look at the Forum FAQs: http://www.immigrationboards.com/british-citizenship/citizenship-faqs-common-questions-read-before-posting-t95747.html Once you get ILR, you can apply to have your child registered as a British Citizen. As he was born in the UK, he does not need ILR be...

If her degree was taught in a country which is not considered English speaking then she'll either need a English Language Assessment from UK NARIC. She can also see if the PBS Calculator would award her degree 10 pts and if it does, print off the screen shot of this. The points based calculator http...

a.) Q1: Do I need to fill in the details about the grand parents? I don’t know their details The section about the grandparents in not required if you obtained BC by naturalisation (see page 12 of the guidance notes). It is required if you have obtained it though your parents/grandparents. Some PO C...

1.) She's an adult so she cannot apply with you. She must submit her own application. She needs to be physically in the UK 5 years before the date of application. 2.) Once again, she's an adult so her application is independent of yours (cf application with a spouse). She can apply in May 2015 when ...

I wasn't clear about whether you'd been living and working here for the past 5 years or if it was just a 5 year period in the past (e.g. 2004-2009) I think you'd need to exercise your treaty rights as an EEA national in the UK for 5 years before gaining permanent residency through that route. Or you...

You shouldn't worry.

As CR001 confirmed, she can just tell them she passed it, no longer has it and to request they look it up on their system. As you know, they have a copy of this on file - as you saw with your own file. I assume they ask for the original to be submitted again so the complete application is in front o...

Even if the ELA states it cannot confirm it meets the standard?

Her occupation is whatever her job title is at her job. The Home Office isn't concerned with the type of contract (e.g. casual, permanent, full-time, etc.). You just need to disclose what she does for a living/her occupation.

They are signing that they have known you for 3 years. If they sign the form and provide false information then they risk criminal penalties (e.g. fine and imprisonment).

I found the NCS person I dealt with was very knowledgeable and what she didn't know, she asked UKBA. That being said, it sounds like this person is told what to tell people to bring. She might not be the NCS person who checks your application. So, book the appointment and show up with the documents ...

No

You need to give your current passport with your application.

A letter from your university isn't enough. The points based calculator http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/pointscalculator . You can dummy most questions, but on the English Skills Requirement, put in your degree information, and it will say if you're awarded 10 points. You would need to print off t...

What confused me is that even my wife ILR through protection route( refugee ) can apply and I just like to make sure it.
thanks again

It does not matter that she obtained the ILR through the protection route.

Usually they send all documents (minus the application form and payment) back to you after they've made a decision.

Thanks, that sounds reassuring! Hope a decision is made soon - as they hold no other documents to send back.

They have your approval letter to send back!

Will any of your children turn 18 in the next 6 months?

If not:
£1550 for you and your wife+
£1178 for your two children (provided neither of them turn 18 during the time your application is considered)
Total: £2728

This question is to ensure you've paid the proper taxes to HMRC. You should tick both Director and Employee. Your employer is the entity that pays your salary - not the company that pays the contractor company. Tax office is found on your P60 or the office to which your company pays your income tax ...

She will need to explain that she has done LIUK for the purposes of settlement, but that PEO did not return the documents to her, and request that the case officer look up the details on their systems. Honestly, it is a bit odd that if she had a same day appointment, they didn't give all the documen...

1) As per naturalization rule a person has to be physically present at the beginning of 1st year of last 5 year period, for eg. If home office receives my application on 05 Aug 2014 for naturalization then I must be present in UK on 06 Aug 2009. Does the same rule apply for my wife and my daughter ...

It shouldn't delay the process.

We're 12 days into February. Why wouldn't they be working their way through January applications? In order to issue approvals, they need to carry out their checks including verifying referees, etc.

I would imagine March is a very busy month especially as fees go up in April.

Eek! Best of luck, guys!

How is this an immigration issue? It sounds like a family court matter where you'll need to seek professional legal advice.
