we have been asked for our son (who is 10 months) to submit the ILR BRP for both myself and wife or a home office letter to prove we had ILR when he was born. I'm not sure why given we couldn't become citizen without ILR. It is your ILR status that determines your son right/entitlement to ...
First of all, note that HMPO and UKVI, whilst part of the Home Office, work totally different process under different regulations. Personally my first concern would be to secure my child's British passport - the question of being fined is probably secondary. HMPO want to see the BRP or letter as ...
Hello All I am in a bit of a predicament of my own making it seems. My wife and I got citizenship last year Mine was around July and my wife was around November. Our son was born in June a month before I got my citizenship. Now we didnt apply for my sons passport straight away, we had no plans to ...
Eligibility: 5 Year ILR Nationality: Non EU Date of Application online: 31/03/2023 Date of payment (credit card) 31/03/2023 Biometric and documents submission: 21/04/2023 (Free appointment at Mark Lane) Date of approval email: 03/07/2023 Date of ceremony: Pending 4 months total (1 month for free ...
One more question, we are going to be moving on 24th July, is it ok to apply now with our current address and book biometrics (since it a month long wait), and then apply for a change of address after we have moved? or is it better to just wait until after we move?
I am applying for my wife's citizenship application and we got one of our referees to sign back in April. However second referee who is overseas will sign next week.
Is the first referee date of signature now too old >90days? should we get an updated signed form or it doesnt matter?
Hi All I managed to get my citizenship ceremony email today. I have to wait a day to book a date however I am moving home on 24th July to a different council, if no date is available prior to that move is it ok to still attend in my old council? Or is it mandatory to only attend in the council you ...
If I would be you, I would not cancel my application and just simply let the caseworker know my latest address. I have seen some cases where the just inform the HO that they moved the property. Thank you. I am going in today to get biometrics done. I will submit change of address one i know the new ...
I can see in my submission page that I have to: Attend an appointment to provide your documents and biometrics by 02 June 2023 So another option is to cancel my biometric for Friday and reschedule to end of May (hopefully we will have a new apartment by then). Could I then add the new address to my ...
Hello all, one more questions. My appointment is on Friday, but just got an email that our landlord have upped our rent by 40%. we are now thinking of moving by 1 June. Would it be better to cancel application and reapply after moving? (its still a couple months away). Or is it possible to provide ...
1. Is it ok if my referee signed 2 weeks prior to when i submitted my application i.e. on March 13th or does the form need to be signed after i submit? I was trying to get all my documents ready before submitting. My second referee will sign sometime next week. Yes fine. 2. For the proof of living ...
Hi all I submitted my naturalization application yesterday March 31st, my biometric isn't until 21st April. Quick question: 1. Is it ok if my referee signed 2 weeks prior to when i submitted my application i.e. on March 13th or does the form need to be signed after i submit? I was trying to get all ...
Hi All Quick Question For one of the referees for my child (3yo), I am thinking of using the same person as who was referee for his citizenship application. The only issue is: 1. The person is living overseas 2. The persons passport is expired The person is still a British citizen and in a valid ...
Struggling to complete this form. With respect to the Referee we don't have anyone that fits this bill since he didn't to nursery during the last two years and in his first year he was still to young. He doesn't start nursery until end of April 2022. Being in London the GP are a revolving door and ...
Thanks Zimba. with respect to 3 - Do I enter my old BRP detail or the new BRP which i got after my ILR was approved. Or enter the new details and in the cover letter also include the old details.
Hi All I have completed my wifes Set 0 Dependent form and ready to submit. However wanted to get your guidance on a couple of items: I want to submit the application this week using the standard route to save some money but we are also waiting on our landlord to confirm how much they plan to ...
Hi all I got the email approving my ILR. I went with Priority 5 days and after waiting 2 days to book biometric hoping something other than having to go to Birmingham for an appointment this week, I luckily found a next day appointment at Croydon last Wednesday. I got the email yesterday saying my ...
Not meaning to highjack. But i had this same thought and i am uploading a cover letter explaining why I am submitting my ILR with 5 day priority first and once i am successful and get ILR I will be submitting my wifes' application for ILR and applying for my child's citizenship since he was born in ...
Thank I'm sorry, I think i got confused between a CoS being expired vs a Sponsor License expired. The threads I was looking at were about the sponsor licence being expired. So got myself utterly confused.
Hi Team As per above i already submited my application. and I was uploading my documentation. Whilst searching about what to load in each category I noticed people talking about CoS. On my application form I entered the sponsor license number that was on the CoS they sent me (which was for the Tier ...
Only the last 5 years. That is the period you are relying on for ILR. Before that is not relevant Thank Zimba I already submitted my application as I couldn't wait but I included all 6 years in the online form and kept my employer letter with 5 years. Hopefully this doesn't work against me? I have ...
Hello, one last question. I have been in the UK (coming up to 6 years at the end of my current visa). For my employer letter I only asked them to list my absences for the past 5 years (qualifying period). as well as a statement that i am required to travel for work as can be seen from my schedule ...
I feel like I might go with my second option. i.e. a. keep my employer letter showing the past 5 years. b. show my full history since I entered the UK in the online form (i.e. 6 years); and c. On my cover letter mention that employer letter covers my 5 years qualifying period and if they require the ...
