You might have spoken to call centre staff who probably didn't know much anyway. I applied for my son's certificate and I was told by the person dealing with my application that it will be sent the next day to home office. It might be different for your council. It also depends on what time is your ...

if not sure please go to window 22 - customer service desk, lady at customer service was horrible though

I second this as well.

You don't need card to process payment in Cardiff PEo. They will take information of your card from the application form. So don't worry if you don't have card with you. They didn't look my card at all. Not sure about Croydon PEO. You are providing wrong information if the bank has blocked the card...

Following is the information from UKBA website. You can go to Croydon where you have an option to pay by postal order. I guess you can not pay by draft because most banks take the order on phone and post the draft at home. Please note you will have to cancel your Cardiff appointment today as you can...

Hello members Yesterday I had my turn to book an appointment and I experience the same pain of getting error messages about technical problems etc. however eventually I managed to book one appointment. But to my surprise when I opened my email inbox I had a confirmation of each and every appointment...

Hi

Thanks for your reply.

I was asking so that I can inform my credit card company about the name that will request the money. However I do know that some of them decline to put any note like e.g. HSBC. But it is good to know

Thanks again

Hello members

Just wanted to check with those members who recently applied for their visas to confirm what name appear on your credit/debit card statements after the UKBA has charged the fees for renewal.

Many thanks

Hi, Wondering whether any of you had problem to re-schedule your booked appointment online? I booked an appointment for 3OCT for my ILR based on tier1. My tier1 expire 30OCT, I thought it might be too early. (Is it? not sure how they calculate the 28 days) Then I try to re-schedule it tonight, it k...

I was told on this forum that date of signature should not be older than six months

Imran22, answers to your questions are in bold. I don’t have the answer to your question but I am in the same dilemma these days and can’t decide what to do. On one hand I would like to save £700 but I don’t want any problems. Also I was worried if we need to leave the country due to some urgent tr...

Can people share their experiences ,problem and suggestions about payment modes on window.I am specially concerned how to pay huge amount for the family of 5 to 6 people.Will it be paid by 1 card or can be paid by another card half and half? As far as I am aware you can only use one card. May be yo...

Sorry I forgot to mention my query was regarding SET(O)

Hello members, Is there any recommendation on how many documents should be required to prove cohabitation? I remember seeing a reference in the past about having documents from six different sources but the new form only says the following “please provide documentary evidence of cohabitation since y...

Thanks for your advice. One last question if in the unlikely event that we need to go to home country. Can I apply for MN1 by coming back leaving the child behind and once I receive the certificate then we apply for the passport in our home county.

Are you suggesting that I should include the child in my ILR application?

Thanks for your replies I understand it’s a right and I also understand that if we have to go outside the country then my son will not be able to return. But in worst case scenario if we will have to go what procedure I have to follow to get him back. Can the certificate and passport be obtained fro...

Hello members, I know that you can skip child born in UK from the ILR application and apply the citizenship directly using MN1. I have also seen many posts where members have done this. The reason for my post is to ask two questions • The worst case scenario if I do not apply for my child’s ILR what...

You will only be able to get 1st September appointment if someone cancels it which happens but not that often so only thing I can suggest is keep looking. If you can't find the appointment then do a postal application and do not let your visa expire because if you apply after expiry then your applic...

You can only book appointment six weeks in advance of your desired appointment date.

Ignore the paying online option and pay at the PEO. Do tell us how did everything go on Wednesday.

I don't believe there are any official guidelines for this. The only thing I'd say is you'd need to make sure that a CW can distinctly match/verify the two sources of income for each of the months you submit as evidence. A cover letter should help with this & don't see an issue in using either of t...

Hello board members, My payslip always has the date with last day of the month e.g. 30th June but the salary gets deposited in the bank account around 15th or if 15th is a weekend then Friday before that. My question is which date to use in the form to include 12 months earnings. For example 15th Ju...
