You do not need to prove residency. Refrain from inventing your own rules. The UKVI will use their data to assess whether you had continuous residence or not. Also, the qualifying period starts from the first visa issue date and the date of entry is irrelevant. Provide your first visa issue dates ...
1.1 - Could members please confirm whether the “Probable Overstayer” wording is likely just a temporary SAR/system/compliance marker, rather than an actual adverse immigration issue? 1.2 - Would this need to be explained in a cover letter for Long Residence ILR, or should I simply keep the SAR ext ...
Just to clarify, if the application fee is based on my partner's original CoS being over 3 years, does that also mean the Immigration Health Surcharge should be paid for 5 years, even though the dependant extension will only be granted for 3 years? Or should the IHS still only be for the 3-year ...
There are two issues here: 1. The immigration health surcharge online system is not smart enough to calculate IHS fees correctly for an applicant whose partner has ILR. For such dependants, the extension visa period is always fixed at 3 years, as per the rules. As ILR has no expiry date, you should ...
Hi I would like to apply ILR on super priority for myself, my wife and my daughter as we have completed 10 years. I understand that slots are limited at open at 1 am UK time. Is that correct? What is the best way to secure the slots as i need to do it as a family and doing one after another will ...
Solicitors cannot impact the outcome of an application at all as their services are advisory and in my view, their services are often not a good use of your money. You do not need a solicitor to apply for ILR. Also note that GCSE level English is NOT acceptable for the purpose of satisfying the ...
secret.simon You are correct that such an application is not an application for leave to remain, so variation of leave is meaningless. However, there is a much bigger issue with what the OP has done. If the OP claimed on his fee waiver application that he intends to apply for a human rights ...
3C leave Regardless of whether the fee waiver request is granted or refused, the applicant will benefit from 3C leave if: •they had valid permission when the fee waiver request was submitted, and which has expired by the time the fee waiver request is decided •the applicant makes a valid app ...
There are already transitional arrangements in place. That is why paragraph CR 4.2 (when it comes to the long residence) will be subjected to the transitional arrangements in place. This does NOT appear under the rules but only in the long residence guide. The transitional arraignment kept/preserved ...
The concession only seems to apply to main applicants as per the rules but many reported that they all have been granted ILR when they applied for ILR , just like the main applicant.
If they do NOT want you for the foreseeable future, then as per the rules you do NOT qualify for ILR. Checks with employers are often conducted to verify this. While some may have been able to get away with this in the past, it seems the UKVI is now doing these checks more thoroughly The eligibility ...
There has been NO route change. If the form lacked the category, then that is very likely the reason it may have delayed the application. I do not believe this is a route issue as you imagine it, possibility an internal issue which they are trying to resolve so that your partner can be granted ILR ...
Any route changes require variation and a new application, as the UKVI will not do that on their own (the rules do not allow it) and people who apply under the incorrect route, are told to apply again. SAR notes do not give you all the details on why an application is held, as the information and ...
Solicitors are spewing rubbish most of the time. The quality of advice these people give is horrifyingly bad. There are many topics on the forum with terrible advice from solicitors, where I had to demonstrate as being totally wrong and terrible. Their advice on the qualifying period, literally ...
1. The date of entry is irrelevant. Qualifying period starts from very first visa issue date 2. The earliest date of your ILR eligibility is 2 August 2021 + 5 years - 28 days READ --> All you need to know about applying early, the application date, 28-day concession and more 3. Absences within the ...
a) Correct. The earliest date of ILR eligibility is 11/09/2016 + 10 years - 28 days. You should aim for a ILR decision date on or after the date above. You are getting conflicting information because many still do not fully understand the significant changes made to the long residence rules since ...
