Thanks Amber

Hi Amber

Post my ILR, I made an application for CB with an expectation that it would be backtracked for the whole 3 months.

However, tax office has only accepted to pay out for 4 weeks as they claim it's based on when I received my ILR. Is this ruling correct as I assumed otherwise?

I know the form says they shouldn't be but after a bit of a struggle, I have found two referees (one professional) although they are husband / wife Would it be an issue for a 4 month old baby's BC registration application? Healthcare visitor and GP are reluctant as experienced by a number of ppl her...

Thanks Amber - appreciate all your guidance and support to date

Can't guarantee the experience but yes I do live in Cardiff so my PEO was local

I can't start this post by thanking enough to all of the moderators (especially Amber and CR001) and others for all their help in my run up to this moment which was I should say although was a straight forward application, was a source of worry given the amount of money involved I applied using the ...

Thanks Amber, really appreciate it

Is there any readers who has applied for PBS dependant via post recently? How long has it taken you from start to finish?

The only doc I could identify before / after this post is a 90 day bank statement. Is that (along with completed form + passports / BRP) all that is required for a PBS extension? As I am planning for a postal application, I just want to make sure I haven't missed anything based in which they can rej...

Hi Amber - Could you kindly advise?

Hello

Could you advise me relevant docs required to extend my wife's visa on PBS Dependant (Tier 1) after I get my ILR (hopefully)

Also, is there a timeline that is tracking start to finish times for PBS Dep category

Thanks

Hi CR001 I noticed on quite a few previous threads that the advice given in this instance would be that one applies via the other main applicant option I just booked my appt 2 days ago using the above option and I also am on Tier 1 general. If your above advice is the option to choose, does that mea...

Hi Amber - I am aware of who can claim it. My question is what is it and who usually qualifies for it. Eg: is it for people below a certain income level or similar

Indian national eligible for ILR in early July and wife is a Tier 1 dependent. We have one child who is eligible for BC post my ILR

Hi Amber

Hi Akash - really appreciate your reply. So at what stages from MN1 application to PIO process does my passport have to go with our child's application?

Would you know what our child would missing out without OCI. I haven't come across PIO that much - does it offer the same set of rights / benefits?

Hi I am eligible to apply for ILR in July after which I plan to register our newborn baby for BC. Our aim is to take our child to India for christening by end of this year and I would really appreciate if any recent parents could advise us relevant steps from MN1 stage and at what points do I need t...

Thanks CR001 and Amber for coming back to me. I initially qualified in Tier 1 (G) on 30/7/09 having previously been on PSW. So an in-country application My current extension visa is stamped till 19/9/14 owing to the delay during 2012 Olympics. My belief is by July 14 I am eligible than wait till Sep...

Hi Moderators My 5 years towards ILR will be completed by 30th July 2014. I've heard previously about a 28 day rule as the earliest time period before booking an appt which in my case will make me eligible to apply a PEO appt by 2nd July Simple question - have I got this right? Is this rule still va...

Hi I have been trying for the past few weeks to book a PEO appointment through the following web address without any luck: www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/book-appointment However now that everything is routed through www.gov.uk, I noticed a different site to apply which is Visa4UK. Am I applying on the ...

Hi everyone - I checked with the home office yesterday and they advised that given in my case it's two separate applications (ILR + PBS dependant), there is no cost benefit even if it's done on the same day. I hope this info helps others as well Given PBS dependant PEO is £2007, how I wish like the ...

Thanks a lot Amber for confirming that. On that point, can I also ask, is it any cheaper making an application together or is it the same?

I ask this because technically, I am eligible to apply from July whilst my wife can only apply in Sept

Kindly advise
