I completely agree with you CR001 with regards to being sure about the checklist and double checking them twice and be extra cautious. However, I would like to know if there is a separate thread to track applications\experiences of users who have applied for ILR from Tier 1 General in person and hav...

suggest apply within 28 days of the date you entered

Well I am trying to apply as soon as I am eligible. I can only be eligible after 4th May 2017 (28 days before I complete 5 years in UK). Is that what you have suggested in the above quoted comment CR001 ?

Thanks for the confirmation CR001.

iWorker, yes I did leave the UK in the month of December later that year for a vacation of 24 days or so. I dont know why that would effect anything? Can you please explain further?

Apologies I was not aware of that.
My options are:
E44302
E2601

Thanks for all the clarifications till now CR001. I submitted my Tier 1 (General) visa application on 5th March 2010 and got it in few weeks. I dont remember the exact date when I received it. I think it must have been within a fortnight at most. However I have read from other posts that the date yo...

Dear moderator(s),

Can you please change my username to E2241

Thanks in advance!

Is there anyway to change the username or delete a post by the user?

an original letter or certificate from UK NARIC confirming the equivalent level of your degree, plus an official letter from your university with your name and degree confirming that your degree was taught in English [/b] Further update to the above point: Obviously NARIC is only going to confirm t...

Hi Everyone, I was just curious about the documents required for Medium of instruction (MOI). I have done my Bachelors and Masters from Osmania University - India. All my certificates are in English. As per the rules: an original letter or certificate from UK NARIC confirming the equivalent level of...

Also is it possible to apply for a British Passport for the child from your home country via the British Embassy or something?

CR001! The quickest.

Well yes the rule I was referring to was the 28 day rule or something of entering the UK after once granted the initial Tier 1 visa. I will try to look that up and provide that information. I must have read it in the form maybe.

Hello Friends, I was granted Tier 1 - General visa on 5th March 2010. However, I only entered the UK on 1st June 2012. The reason being that the company I was working for had sent me to the USA for some project work. Additionally I had family commitments and personal reasons due to which I could not...

CR001, maybe I didnt quite explain properly. 1. I will apply for ILR in May. 2. I hope I get it in same day appointment. 3. I plan to travel to India once I have the ILR. 4. I am homesick and want to stay in India for a longer duration. Around 4 months. 5. I plan to come back after my holiday, spend...

Hello All, I wanted to take a break once I have the ILR. I am applying for it in the month of May this year in person. I am hoping it would be quick and easy. After that I was planning to go to India for a period of 4 months. I wanted to know if that would be a problem when I apply for British Citiz...

Sure, i will do that!

Hello All, I have a child who was born in the UK last year. I am going to apply for my ILR in May 2017 this year. I have not applied for the Indian passport. However I will be travelling to India later this year. I heard that it is better to apply for the British passport for the child. Once I get t...

Thank you for your reply CR001. I understand now that I first need to register the child as British on form MN1. I will probably apply through NCS at the council so that I can apply for citizenship and passport at the same time. So registering the child as British on form MN1 is actually applying fo...

Hello Dear forum members and moderators, I have to apply for ILR in month of May this year. I will go in person and hopefully HO does issue the ILR on same day appointment. My child was born last year here in the UK. We never had to travel anywhere so he still does not have any form of passport. He ...

thanks for your reply.. i do have the copies, however the registration people say they need it from the UKBA. i dont understand why they want a copy from them.

Hi, Does anyone know if the UKBA sends across the passport copy if there is a need for the same? I needed my wife's passport copy for some registration purpose. I am aware they send back the original passport if needed in an emergency. However, I dont want the original, need just the copy. Is that p...
