i've recently got the ilr and we have a son - born before getting the ilr. we would like to know if claiming child benefit, tax credits (both child tax credit as well as working tax credit) affect the naturalisation process in any way? the other important question i wanted to ask was: child benefits ...
I finally got my ILR at the PEO Birmingham. Having an appointment is highly recommended. The interview took about 15 minutes after which I was asked to pay the (premium) fees. The documents checked were: 1. wp 2. salary slips 3. letter from the employer I did not take my wife (and the kid) along ...
Resider, I agree, if the son's Indian passport is available. But if it is not, well certainly do not delay making the ILR applications for the rest of the family simply because the son's passport cannot be enclosed. Thank you everyone for your helpful suggestions. I am still awaiting my son's ...
Scorz, Options 1. Include child in your ILR application as a dependent. 2. Do not include child in ILR application. Apply for his registration as a BC post your ILR approval. Obtain a British passport for the child to facilitate travel. 1 is preferable in case there are any issues arising - you can ...
i had made similar comment/query when i had first called up the homeoffice! but i was asked what was child's status - to which i had no reply. i said we plan to register the child after we have our ilr; to which i was told that it was not right. "the right way to go about it - and a legal way - is ...

hello! i'm eligible for an ilr but am currently awaiting our son's passport (indian). because the indian govt does not endorse the child's name on the parent's passport, and based on the advise of many people (both here, on this forum and outside), we decided to get his passport done so that we all ...
ok. it seems i did not put it as clearly as i would have liked it to. what i meant was - is it alright if i were to apply for the ILR if we our son's citizenship is unavailable? by this i mean - we have a choice the following choices: register our son as an indian national, apply for his passport ...
congratulations, basis! however, continuing on this discussion... our child was born earlier this year. we still have no ILR - infact i become eligible only end of this month (3 yrs 11 mnths). my dilemma is: should i register the child as an indian citizen and get his passport made? OR should i just ...
:shock: is it true that the home office has changed the duration after which one can apply for an ILR? I learned that the initial 4 yrs stay before you could apply for ILR has now been increased to 5 years! I know of increase in the fees but never knew about the duration increase! Can anyone please ...
hello moderators, thank you for the brilliant work you guys are carrying on... Would it not be better for everyone if you were to collate information from some of the most discussed topics on the ILR procedures etc and the most frequently asked questions and put it in a sticky of some sort... Or ...
Does anyone know if the workpermit holders are eligible to apply/register themselves for housing from the council/associations or Should they always look for renting from private landlords and/or estate agency.

Included her name as a dependent your daughter had been a 'dependent' for over a year - whereas in our case it would be approximately 6 months and hence ...
thanks a lot! does the ILR not require atleast a year's residency in the country (for the dependents)? and if so, how does it apply for a new born? also, we were'nt thinking of applying for the child's ILR since it would require a passport and thought it would be less of a hassle (and involve less ...
Hi there, My husband & I received our ILR in March 2004. Our daughter was born here in April and is eligible for British nationality. I just wanted to find out if we are eligible to receive Child Benefit. Would it affect our application for British Citizenship as it is part of Public funds? Many ...
