Go to the MP?

Hi, you are of course not British, but your spouse is. So whilst you say that you will go to see the MP, I think it should be both of you going along to see the MP. After all, your spouse is a constituent of the MP and no doubt on the voter's list. How long? I don't think there is any clear cut guid...

Sorry, total rubbish!

For e.g. if a person joins in February, then the personal allowance is divided by 2 and applied to salary from Feb and March. The polite version is ... absolute rubbish. That is not the way PAYE works at all. Don't take my word for it ... the Inland Revenue's website will confirm. In the theoretica...

How PAYE tax calculated

OK, re-reading the message from the OP, he says he will work for six months in this tax year. Accordingly it looks as if the first pay date will be at the end of October 2004 and the sixth at the end of March 2005. So, if the code number is "normal", not Month 1 basis, the PAYE works on a cumulative...

A couple of points

"Journey", given that it is approaching 2-and-a-half years since the spouse visa application was made, certainly take the matter up with the local MP. That comment already made is good advice. Also, we know of someone who whilst their circumstances are not exactly the same as yours, did get a positi...

That's not right!

HK_007, you say, "that's right" but I don't think it is. The OP says he has a normal tax code. Accordingly PAYE will be applied on a cumulative basis. That's means, for example, that half-way through the tax year one-half of the personal allowance will be used in the tax calculation. That should sti...

Will you have a problem?

If you have an ILR visa you can use it to re-enter the UK ... as a returning resident! So if someone ... not you ... was using their ILR like a glorified visitor's visa then they might encounter problems. Also do appreciate that ILR is slightly wrongly named, in the sense that that "Indefinite" real...

Public Funds?

Can I just pick up on the Public Funds question? A time-limited visa will have a "No recourse to Public Funds" restriction. However an ILR Visa does not and accordingly there is no problem in principle with an ILR Visa holder submitting claims for Public Funds, such as Child Benefit. Also, when can ...

Answers to your questions

Hi, yes you want to make both applications together ... as is made clear by the application form AN(NEW). That is, there is space on the form for the child's details to be entered. I am assuming the dependent is a child? If not, ignore the above. But if not a child, what sort of dependent? How much?...

Answers to your questions

Vanity, about your posting, firstly of course be aware that as long as the FLR application went in before the end of your previous visa that you are protected by Section 3C from being an overstayer. That is, the old visa automatically gets extended until the issue of the new one, or worse case, if a...
