Hi,

Could anyone one please advice on below:

We are (my wife and two children) are living in the uk since 2003,planning to apply for ILR but confused a bit.

1. Are we need to apply each one alone on seperate application?

2.My daughter's visa will run on 10/06/2013 (tier two dependent visa on my wife) , she has born her on 2007 but did not complete ten years yet, what we can do for her ?

Many thanks

1. Separate Long residence applications for those who qualify.

2. See also child born in UK.

Thanks for that.

Just to make sure i 'v understood very well,

1.We will apply for ILR for ourselves,then apply for visa extension for my daughter(as her visa will expire before we got our ILR) .

2.Once ILR approved , we will apply for my daughter an application for Registration as British for child born-in-the-UK .

Is that right please ?

thanks in advance

UK-born daughter may apply for SET(F) at the same time as you (stating that parents' Long Residence application is pending) or (perhaps better?) she may skip applying for leave to remain.

Hi,
Than you very much.

I will tell you the story completely, my daughter was born on December 2007 , her visa dependent on my wife's student visa, then on 2010 become Tier 2 (as my wife finished her study and got a job). I meant my daughter has applied for visa before (I think two times) and not like other cases in this forum: a child born here but did not have any visa status before.

Is that something different when a UK bon child who applied for a visa before and currently on Tier 2 visa, still is eligible to apply for SET (F) at the same time as parents' Long Residence application is pending?

Could you please also explain what you meant by "or (perhaps better?) she may skip applying for leave to remain"

Many thanks for all your comments.

Best Regards

Click on the given links for more thoughts.

Child's entitlement to British citizenship is not dependent on child's immigration status, if child is born in the UK. It's dependent on a parent being granted ILR.

If both parents are not granted ILR, then child's SET(F) will fail anyway. However, if a parent is granted ILR, then the UK-born child is entitled to register for British citizenship, irrespective of child's immigration status. So, there may be little point in the UK-born child making a leave to remain application.

Hello,

1) please apply your ILR using Form Set (LR)
2) Send your application and your wife's application together in one envelope, if your wife qualifies for the 10yr Long Residence.
3) for your children application, just wait till you get your application reference number for your ILR then apply for your children's British Registration quoting your ILR reference from Home Office.

Hiya, please use the link below for the application of British Citizen Registration for your children, if your children are born in the UK and if you have received acknowledgement letter with reference number from UKBA on your ILR

Thanks for your help.
In the form there is question about when i got ILR ( in section 2), what about that ?

Best Regards

Hello, please be specific with your question about **section 2** because it appears you are wanting to send two different (1)-Form LR & (2)-Form MN1, applications to HO.

If it is Form MN1, you mean the date you were given ILR, it is a clear question, since you are applying for your child on form MN1 , it's assumed you have already be given or obtained ILR or in the process of obtaining ILR, so just fill in the date on your ILR-BRP Card or if it has been stamped on your passport. Otherwise just wait till you get your ILR application reference number from HO, then fill it in on Form MN1 for your child/children.

***Hope this helps!***

Hi ,
Thanks for that. Yes , i meant form MN1 which i need to fill for my daughter after submitting my Form LR .

So after submtting my Form LR on 26/07/2013 and getting reference number within few days ( hopefully) and before my daughter's visa expires on 10/09/2013 , i will submitt MN1 application.

thanks

You should wait until you are granted ILR before submitting the MN1 form for your daughter. It may be refused if you don't have ILR at the time of the consideration.

Hi.
but according to Spatacus , i only need homeoffice reference number for my LR.

Please advice?

thanks

Having re-read the guidance, that may also be possible (8.5.5). However, what would be the advantages in her applying for MN1 before you are granted ILR?

Hi Vinny,

Thanks for your replay.

Ok, do you advice waiting the result for my IRL?

I will waite but my daughter's visa will expire before getting acceptance letter from home office!!

thanks

Hi everyone,

I got one more question :

I was on student dependent visa since 08/2003 to 02/2010 and then got a work permit before my current visa expire, but according to home office , i had to leave uk and get entry cleareness .

1.My visa was up to 02/2010

2.But i moved out of uk on 09/2009 to get entry clearness.
3.After 9 days i back to uk with my new visa.

Can i still able to apply for 10 years ILR?

Many thanks

Yes. Do read the guidance.

Hi,

I will apply for IRL soon, so I need help in these questions:

1.I have two passports with all stamps on it (there are arrivals stamps only but no departures!! ) and I will send my passports only but no any other documents , is that right or I need any other document just in case they need more evidence?

2.If I only send my passports, do I need to fill and sign section 5 – consent for UK agency……(page 20).

3.My son (under 18 years) also applying for IRL , do I need to fill my name and signature in section 6 – Declarations (page 22) instead of my son or I just need to sign but put his name?


Thanks in advance.
