I read it on chatgpt. So it is definitely not the case? It did sound too good to be true. Here is a quote: 🔹 Scenario A (cheaper route with direct registration for kids) Kids do not need to wait in Serbia. They can come to the UK with the mother — but not on “child dependant visas.” Instead: Since th ...
One of my employees is going to become a British Citizen soon. He has three kids born abroad, all of them will be under 18 when he becomes British Citizen. I read online that once he becomes British Citizen, his kids can also apply for Citizenship and come over to the UK. His wife would have a visa ...
Hello, My employee's visa is expiring in 1 month and I would like to extend their visa. This is the first time I am doing this. I have created a COS and it says "Ready to go" but it has no cos number and I cannot assign it (there is no assign button). I am not sure if I need to do anything to get ...
Yes, correct Ok, thanks, everything is clear now regarding the amount. I have another (hopefully final) thing to ask. We received three emails, one for wife and two for kids. All three emails are asking for the same amount and it is the same UAN as they applied all together. All three emails are ...
You have paid the INCORRECT fee and also totally confused yourself. The 5 years they refer to in their communication is the length of your initial COS as that is important to determine the correct fees :!: Here is what the fees are based on how long was your initial COS was issued for: Fees ...
Same question answered a few days ago by zimba. https://www.immigrationboards.com/viewtopic.php?p=2187068#p2187068 Thanks for your response CR001! Just to confirm, I already paid for 3 years, and they are asking me to pay for 5 years. Zimba's answer in the topic you posted is the following: First ...
Hi, can anyone please help? In the meantime, I found this in the guidance. It would also support that family can get 3 year visa as main applicant received ILR and I am not sure why they are even mentioning cos? Period of grant for a dependent partner or dependent child of a Skilled Worker SW 36.1 ...
Also, clarification for amount of 2,427gbp - the only way to get this amount is to have three times the difference between 5 year and 3 year visa fee. Three times because of three applicants - wife and 2 kids. Visa fee paid for 3 years: 3x 827gbp = 2481gbp Amount payable for 5 years: 3x 1,636 = 4 ...
Hello, I am posting this on behalf of my sponsored worker and his family. Sponsored worker spent 5 years in the UK (COS valid for 5 years) and received ILR a few weeks ago. His family (wife and 2 kids) joined him 6 months later after he arrived so they have been in the UK for 4 years and 6 months ...
Hello, One of my employees is applying for ILR in 2 months. He had skilled worker visa for 5 years so no issues there. His wife and children joined him 1 year later, so unfortunately at the time of his ILR aplication they will be here for 4 years. I am aware that wife will need to extend her ...
Hello, We currently have three workers that were sponsored based on old salary thresholds. Their base salaries are around 29k and they came to the UK about 18 months ago. When time comes to extend their visas, will it be possible to do it on old salary requirements (that were present when they made ...
Hello, Main applicant on skilled worker visa will become eligible to apply for ILR in December this year. His Skilled Worker visa ends on 31.12.2024 and he will qualify for ILR mid December (his qualifying period started on 14.1.2020.) His family (wife and two kids) got visa in July 2020 and it is ...
I understand that (it was the same for me and my wife), however if visa is issued on 29.12.2023. then rolling period starts from that day? To clarify 1 year rolling period means all of the above: 29.12.2023. - 29.12.2024. 30.12.2023. - 30.12.2024. 1.1.2024 - 1.1.2025. . . . . . 15.8.2026-15.8.2027 ...
It is visa start date for both. Post 6 in the first link dora5 not say date of entry for pbs dependents. It specifically refers to spouse visa which is a different visa category completely Amazing, thank you! So to clarify, as long as skilled worker and their dependant wife and child enter UK ...
Hello, Can you please let me know what day is used for 5 year starting period for: 1. Skilled worker sponsored person 2. His PBS dependant wife and child To the best of my understanding I believe that Skilled worker start date is visa issue date. Is this the visa they got in their passport? For PBS ...
If I want to sponsor someone who is studying in the UK on a student visa, does it mean that they have already proven knowledge of English (scored points there) and that we do not need to submit it again? Or the test will be required again? They did an english test online when coming to the UK (done ...
Thanks, that is exactly what I was looking for. I am not sure why it "disappeared" as I was looking at the exact same page, maybe it was some sort of maintenance. I have one more question but I am not sure if I should set up a new topic. If I want to sponsor someone who is studying in the UK on a ...
Hi, My company has sponsored a number of visas so far, but nothing new within the last year or so. A person from abroad has asked me where they should take the test and I am very confident that a few years ago there was a list of authorised test providers per country on the gov.uk website. However ...
I lost edit option, one more question: 5. Is there a limit to how many generations British citizenship has been "transferred" if future generations have been born outside of UK? And would it just make someone not British by default, but still eligible to become British if they were to move to UK ...
Hello, I became British Citizen 2 months ago and I became father a few days ago. My wife has ILR. So, at moment of birth, our baby had one parent as naturalised British citizen, and one parent with ILR. I know that getting British passport for our baby is simple, and we will provide my passport and ...
Thanks!
