nope, just received the FPN from a PC, paid the fine online and submitted all the DL at a local Police station which was sent back after mentioning 3 points and penalty code on cover letter. Cheers Is it the only one or you had more? If more (reckless) then it is a clear five year period you have t...

Asher> I am sorry to hear about what have you been told by HO. However, I would still like to know wheather you was issued with Residence card or Permanent Residence card. Either way as long as you stayed with your partner for three years out of which one year was in this country you will be fine. T...

I would agree with Chetan.. that you should not take risk by submitting payslips which are not clear and can cause confusion and further delay.. If you will be able to get a letter from your employer in the format mentioned in CHetan's sticky.. you dont need to submit these payslips, instead submit...

TVN, well said. No one knows about emergencies in life. However, I would like to add one more point to what John have said earlier that if you can wait till you apply for your ILR. BUT What if he still does not include the child in ILR applicaiton and apply for child's naturalisation once he gets hi...

The list of suitable professional referees seems to be a bit arbitrary and not very clear. I'm planning of asking a person who is an Associate Member of the Chartered Institute of Securities & Investment. I'm not sure if this might be covered by 'banking official' or 'broker' as technically he is n...

it wasnt necessary i suppose. - Absolutely right.

Eskar> I also said it was through EU route. Where people obtain their PR automatically after five years of treaty stay and they dont have to apply for it. As it merely confirms the rights you have alredy. So technically I did have PR for morethan 1 year but sticker was placed only 7 months ago. Mura...

Eskar> Thanks mate. Well in terms of recieving communicaiton from HO they send your originals back with special delivery. You get your approval with a standard second class post.

It is another game by Labour for tomorrow's Headlines. But soon there will be a loophole or some sort of grants from Local Government to support immigrants. Because Labour can not rule without immigrants. Dont wonder if you see a bill board saying vote for us and we will pay for Premium 15K appointm...

And how about that new £15000 fee?
