Hi Kumar9363, I am in a similar situation as you are. Have you applied for your child's MN1? What's with the healthcare situation ? Did you opt for any private health insurance ? Thank you. Regards, Sasank You need to separate "health care" from MN1. MN1 hasn't got any requirements for health care ...

The only potential acceleration is to book a private ceremony with your council, for an additional fee. note that councils arrange and manage the ceremonies and timelines/availability may vary. The council will contact you when they have received your certificate and arranging ceremonies. Best to co...

That’s it.
The next communication is the approval email unless they’ll contact you for queries. They won’t give you any progress updates.
Don’t get nervous.. it could take up to 6 months, sometimes even longer (generally not a sign there's an issue with your application).

Hi Am just filling in the referee form. Silly question... But is the picture to be put on referee form mine (applicant) and not of the referee right? Correct - your pic. And the name of the applicant would be my name? Yes of course .... And in the end where it says referee declaration; thats where ...

You can apply now as spouse of British citizen subject to all requirements met.

Visa Route to ILR is not relevant.

There are no published processing targets for reconsideration.
One should hope they will realise the error - did you include the email/letter granting your ILR?
The fee will be refunded if/when they agree their decision was in error.

Hi, I have a question, my child was born on Jan 24 and i got my ILR in March 24, should I apply for him the British citizenship first and then naturalization or I can apply for his naturalization directly ? Kindly advise as the citizenship fee is £1,210 and naturalization fee is quite cheap Childre...

I am unable to find the answer to this hence raising as a new post here. Me and my wife applied and got the ILR in different years, as and when we become eligible. Now we are both eligible for Naturalisation, can I apply her as dependent on my Naturalisation application or should we apply in separa...

UKVI response times vary widely from immediate to never.

That should cover it. Border will probably as questions anyway.

Naturalisation data I have found a while ago on gov.uk is not analysed by visa route. There's actually just one application form for AN.

hi, when HO calculate first day of qualifying period - is this 3/5 years from the date you submitted your application/paid or the day you submit ur biometrics? From date of submission/payment online.

When visiting the UK to attend a trade fair or exhibition, what is the most appropriate reason, as categorized by the UK government because no reason is appearing to attend trade fair, expo or conference etc? A review of the visitor visa rules on gov.uk would have given you this: https://www.gov.uk...

In terms on the naturalisation application I can't see this has any relevance. If there's a dispute that's a civil matter. If all the details you have entered in the application are true and correct to the best of your knowledge then what's the problem? How would you explain this to a caseworker? Ma...

Hi all, My Mrs. has had ILR since March 2023. We want to apply for her naturalization (a British passport).

I believe that at the time some members contacted the Home Office and were told those emails were sent in error ….

Haven't seen reports of these emails for quite some time! It probably means they sent these emails in error - logically these should be sent after the approval has been issued. Some members speculated at the time that the approval should be received soon after the survey email but can't comment on t...

This type of application "at the discretion of the Home Secretary" is being done for children every day by ILR holders. You clearly hold ILR, the child holds ILR, and generally comply with the requirements. There's nothing extra you have to prove. The term "at the discretion" captures all manner of ...

Might be good idea for UKVI to update their guidance with what is not acceptable.
Council Tax to my mind is a local tax bill raised by local government, rather than a household bill like gas or phone.
I still see people saying they used council tax bills without issues.

If one or both parents have ILR child can register as British.
It doesn't matter that parents are not applying.
