also check with the airline, e.g. if you leave Ghana on your Ghanaian passport the airline will want to see that you have a Schengen visa. Not sure though how this works in Accra, i.e. whether you can show one passport when checking in for your flight and another one at immigration control. Manci ...

I have booked my flight on the internet with a third party. I have an e-ticket. There has been no query about nationality or passport details. I assume I will just present the ticket at the check-in desk with my passport.

Thank you ban.s

I will do that.

I am a dual national (Ghana/UK). I am travelling to Ghana with a 1 hr stop off in Amsterdam both ways (KLM). I am confused about whether I can travel using my two passports: 1. Leave UK with my Brit pass 2. Enter Amsterdam with my Brit pass 3. Leave Amsterdam with my Brit pass 4. Enter Ghana with my ...

I think it is 28 days before the end of the two year qualifying period not any date after the 2 years.

Anyone, please.

Thanks

I am a Uk passportholder. My partner is an ilr holder. Can we visit an EU country together without a visa?

Thanks for your help vikasbirla. We will reapply with a few more documents.

Well done vikasbirla. It was worth reapplying. Please tell me, did you put "Nil" to the question about the cost to your brother in law personally for the trip? My niece was also rejected. She is a student and I am sponsoring her trip in full. What did you change in the application that you think ...

Thank you ouflak1.

We will be sending extra documents, payslips and bank statements from the parents in addition to the previous documents and addressing their queries. Just have to wait and see what happens.

Thank you Lucapooka After doing some research I have found out that my niece has no rights of appeal apsrt from isues relating to race or human rights. So we will reapply. Does reapplying involve going through the same process as the first application in terms of photocopying all documents again ...

Hi all. This the text from the letter in full. "In accessing your individual application, it has not been necessary to interview you, but I have taken account of: - the financial and employment information as declared by you on your application form, - your passport and travel history - your family ...

My niece has been refused a visa to the Uk. She is in her penultimate year at uni and I invited her for a visit providing all my docs. The reason they gave is that there was no input from her parents on their financial situation even though I will be taking care of all her expenses. I will type up ...

Any help, please. Please bear in mind that my niece is not from a well-to-do family. I am worried that she will be decliined based on her parents' income. I have enough savings to pay her fare and support her during her trip. The questions are: (bearing in mind she does not work) Top of Part 5 ...

I have a query on Part 5 Finances and Employment section of Form VAF1A. My niece abroad would like to visit me in UK over summer. (I am a BC.) She is in her second year of three year degree at uni there. She does not work, lives with her parents. Whose details go into the income and expenditure ...

My appointment was booked before the fee thing came into force and so I took a banker's draft for the full amount. I would imagine you are correct in deducting 100 from the full fee.

I forgot to mention that not all peo offices accept bankers drafts. I used croydon and they accept them. Have a look on the ukba website. There is info on there about each peo office and what they accept.

I paid by bankers draft and it was fine. You are right. Pay to Home Office. They should get payment the same day as the cheque is guaranteed by your bank.

Hi butterfly33 Can I please ask you what documents did you submit to them from this section where the form asks the following: " We need 6 letters or other documents addressed to you jointly or in both your names " I do not wish to submit bank statements to them as there are some transactions from ...

Thanks for that, John

Thinking about it again - we may have applied on SET(O) initially (in 2005) and not FLR - so long ago, I can't remember.

Hi John, he came to the UK in 1992, I believe on a six month visa as a visitor but overstayed. He applied in 2005 (13 years after) as my partner and didn't get a reply till 2011 (one of the legacy cases that were dumped in a cupboard and not found till later - I guess). He was given two years ...

Hello all, our SET(M) application was approved this week at Croydon PEO after a very long wait - 12 noon till about 4pm. Thank you for all your help. We are over the moon. A bit of advice for anyone applying, if you can, please go for the Premium Service rather than postal. It saves so much time and ...

Thank you, will do.

Hi we are just filling out SET (M) form and are stuck on Section 9.12 which asks: "Please state what ties you have with the country you were born, any other country whose nationality you hold or any country you have lived for more than 5 years. - You should tell us about any family, friends or other ...
