UKbabble, the question here is proportionality. I know it is the duty of an immigration officer to establish the status and motives of an entrant. His or her duty is to preserve and protect the integrity of UK borders and to keep out unwanted guests, if the ECO hasn't already done so. However, there...

You marriage will be recognised in the UK, provided it is recognised in India. You might not have to deposit it in the Foreign Registry Office.

You will not be required to register it on your arrival back to the UK , as this will be illegal.

The age difference on its own, should not form the basis of a refusal. So long as you are over 21. For them to refuse you on marriage of convenience grounds, there would have to be other factors in addition to the age difference, which would possibly make them believe that you relationship is one of...

One has to realise that only a victim of facial discrimination would know whether or not they have been a victim of such hideous act. It might be the case that the officer was just undertaking routine checks, but the length of time he was kept at the airport before being let through, seems extremely...

Okay John, I am getting there. Ok, I have heard of cases where people were asked to withdraw their appeals before making another application, or to wait for the outcome of their appeals before proceeding with any change of status. Would it no be within the Secretary of State powers, to defer an appl...

Sorry John, but this is the area that was coming to my mind. your marriage or civil partnership did not take place after a decision was made to deport or remove you from the United Kingdom; Based on you response, there is no legal basis to it , is there? Can they not challenge that the original leav...

Would the approval of a FLR(M) application not be subjected to a positive outcome from the appeal? Is there not a likelihood, or the case, that a decision on that, could be deferred until the outcome of ongoing court proceedings? Could it not be construed as a act to suppress immigration authorities...

I think one would be surprised to see how much has changed at the British High commission since 2007. There performance and professionalism has deteriorated sharply.

You case does not reach the threshold for your matter to be referred to the Criminal Casework team. If you are a persistent offender, they might do that, but if it is a one of offence, i don't think you will be penalised for it.

Hi If you have no idea about situation then keep your mouth shut. Would you point me to any guidline which says a person whose family is in UK can not apply for study visa. If you have little guts comes and prove here. This gentlemen was already in UK for eight years on student visa.So what the poi...

I hope you missus will not be too upset if she tried to fatten you up too much. Oh mothers and their sons, you just remind me of mine, always cooking those home made foods i have forgotten about, from years of living in Europe. They are so caring. I was not worried about the money, it is the princip...

Junior i am so delighted for you man. Yes , you don't need an additional visa and you can pick them up by car from Brussels. You next step should be reporting the German Embassy to the European Commission and get your money reimbursed. At least now, your family are with you, it doesn't matter the le...

Tell your employer to check with this service about your current status. They cannot simply dismiss you because you cannot the HO has yet to get round to your case.

There is no requirement to prove that you can support yourself without working, or to have a job lined up, as this is not stipulated in the law. The requirements are as follows: Requirements for leave to enter the United Kingdom as a person exercising rights of access to a child resident in the Unit...

Hi Easy solution.Apply for a student visa and once in Uk start family proceedings and get contact order. If you are in Pak then pm me your contact no. I would guide you properly and free of cost. UK_Banned_Member How on earth could you advise someone who has no intentions of studying in the UK to a...

By proxy, you mean someone stood on her behalf during your marriage, correct? Have you ever met each other? The immigration rules and visa issuing guidelines state that you should have met each other and the marriage should be recognised, and both of you should be above 21. Is you marriage considere...

Someone is declared brankrupt only by a court order. If you haven't got a court order, or a judge has not pronounced you bankupt, you are not.

A few odd debt doesn't make one bankrupt. It is a legal concept.

You won't qualify for citizenship as Spouse of British Citizen until 2011. Bad credit will not affect citizenship application, but bankruptcy certainly will. One of the requirement to qualify under that category is that you provide your marriage certificate, and the birth Certificate or Passport of ...

I don't think VAF2 form stated on this link is the right form to fill Immigration2009. It is for Employment or UK ancestry, and access to a UK child doesn't fit that criteria. The form to fill is a normal Family Visitors visa with the additional required information, and he/ she will receive a 12 mo...

Your husband doesn't need a visa to Ireland and all Schengen countries for that matter. See this.

The directive you quoted does not apply to Ireland but Schengen nations.

She can get an Indian overseas citizens passport which confer rights similar to that of, or on par with that of citizens of India. See this She is failing to realise that the same situation will be present when she applies for British Passport next years, because she would be required to give up the...

When can you refuse under para 320 (11)? This is a discretionary refusal where an applicant has ‘contrived in a significant way to undermine the intentions of the immigration rules’ and where there are aggravating circumstances. This means where an applicant has either: been an illegal entrant;...

I don't think that is right Kesh. Inorder for the spouse of a British Citizen to qualify for EEA Family permit, the British Citizen has to have lived and exercised a EU treaty rights in another member state with the non-EEA partner prior to entering the UK. The British national (OP) can apply to any...

She cannot determine whether or not you will be able to see your child again, because you are not British. I don't think she is in the position to decide that. See this Page on Requirements for that purpose . Also see the Visa application and the application form. You should have informed the courts...
