Query about ILR application
Posted: Mon Aug 12, 2024 9:31 pm

Hi,
I applied for an ILR [set(o)] as a dependent of my husband who previously had skilled worker visa and has got his ILR earlier this year. While entering the details of my time spent in other countries, I filled in the details of the country I was born in and also the details of my time spent in UK. I somehow did not mention the time in between that I spent in my home country (amounting to 14 yrs in between). I know its such a dumb and silly mistake and I hugely overlooked this, but wanted to know if my application could be rejected because of this? Or will the Home Office simply ask for an explanation for this gap?

Thank you so much for your reassurance, I was almost having a panic attack.
Consent/declaration forms for ILR application for child
Posted: Tue Aug 13, 2024 2:29 pm

Hi,
I have applied for my ILR as a dependent of my husband yesterday, and have booked a biometric appointment too. Today my husband has applied for ILR [Set(o)] for our son as well, who was not born in the UK and have spent more than 5 years in UK. My question is, the consent forms that both our applications got are the same. In mine, I signed Part1 and my husband signed Part2. How do we do this for our son, considering he is only 6, he cant actually provide a valid "consent" to anything? Besides the common "Consent to background checks" form, is there any other form that we should be filling? The documents' list that need to be uploaded/brought to the appointment doesn't ask for anything else like his birth certificate or anything (that proves we are his parents/local guardians). Any help is appreciated.

You should have added the child to your application. Keeping things simple.
Just part 1 needs signing by a parent.

I tried my best to find some place I could add my child's name as well as an additional applicant, but couldnt find that. I filled in my details and the ONLY option I could see was "Continue". There was no option that remotely resembled "Add another applicant details" or something like that. I tried calling the Home Office helpline too, and that guy too said that you have to make two different applications for both the applicants.
Backtracking to my qs on consent forms. Just Part1 needs to be signed by my husband, correct? Even though I would be accompanying our son to his biometric appointment?

Signing part one has nothing to do with which parents take the child to the biometrics appointment. Form SET(O) allows you to add dependents and children. The home office also does not operate any official advice phone line, the phone line is outsourced to third parties who often dish out nonsensical and incorrect advice.

Thank you for your quick response. What's done is done I guess!
Thank you for clarifying on the consent forms.

I think you can 'link' your application to your children's:
How to apply
You’ll be told which documents you need to provide when you apply. You might need to show that, for example:
https://www.gov.uk/indefinite-leave-to- ... -work-visa
you meet the English language requirements and have passed the Life in the UK Test
your relationship is genuine and you’ve lived in the UK long enough for the visa you have
You may be able to add your children to your application if they are eligible.
If the application form does not prompt you to add them, they can apply separately and then ‘link’ their application to yours
There might be a section to link the application together when you apply separately for your children. Then The Unique Application Number - UAN will link those applications.
