No no....
It's for the child's parents (ie Spouse and the Sponsor, or if there is another parent), even he/she is British and not in the application.

Leaf, Below might be useful: -One can start online application 8 weeks in advance, so that's pretty good. -They do ask for birth certificates for both parents, we couldn't provide one and explained in the cover letter. -They do ask for applicant's travel abroad in this relevant period, no need to pr...

Yes you are right, it didn't say in checklist, but please send it to be on safe side. Even passport photos are not required, but I send them anyways... Eg of Cover Page: Applicant’s Documents • Cover Letter • Applicant’s Passport • BRP card • 2 Photographs • English Language A2 certificate (original)

Ok Good luck...
But I am sure you can apply for ILR anytime when she cleared LIUK...dont have to wait for another 30 months..

They ask for copies of sponsors passport - each and every page...
I did add page separators for each section ... Accommodation, Financial, etc

Of course, it’s not worth paying for the Premium! Yes, 10 days is very quick! Hope our comes quickly too… I am posting my docs today…. Applying for 1st extension after initial Leave to Enter… Oo it's a shame that just coz of LIUK you have to apply from 2nd extension… you should have given that exam ...

Wow excellent!!! Congrats! I would be worried if I did those mistakes...I am not worried birth birth certificate...they cant refuse on that basis..and the paper form doesn't even ask for it.. You said you received in 10 days...was it a Premium service you took? coz standard ones take 6-8 weeks isn't...

Just in plain words explain you don't have one and dob can be confirmed from the passport. We enclosed a school certificate along with passport, these two shows the dob.

I just saved you £600...you owe me a drink at least ))))

I could change the email to my spouse in the middle of the form...go to Start section and amend the email to your spouse's.....

That's what I read....people pay £600 extra and still no slots in weeks!! Crazy.. Btw today I read somewhere that Premium service centres are now closed..you would have to go via these new outsourcing partners...they have some sort of Priority/premium service.... it only takes 6-8 weeks for the spou...

I chose existing as for the new one you have to visit their new outsourcing partner, pay their fee and get all your documents scanned...that's what I understood... In the existing one..after paying, just post all your docs, passport, declaration pages signed and the checklist to the Sheffield addres...

Quiet a few changes recently. I have chosen the 'Existing system' and it seems the postal address has changed from Durham to Sheffield....

Hey one important thing I noticed - they have changed the postal address from Durham to Sheffield.....
Can you confirm this ?

Thanks,

Well, it was almost midnight when I was finishing the application, so I might have missed the text about the passport photos.

Good luck!!!

Right, I've finished the form now, paid the IHS and fee, and just need to submit supporting documents. Happy days. A couple of other things I've gleaned: Thanks for the update, I also paid IHS paid for application last night. In case people were still doing it, from Nov 5th 2018 no longer need to s...

Thanks for the update,
there are certain places you have to tick otherwise you own't go forward.

I would recommend you to write the detail in your cover letter what you wish to explain...
good luck...

Gotta do it online now.
Can't comment on the other query.

Not sure how it would work as they probably want you to pay the fee valid at the time of the application. I’m keeping a close eye on it. The fees just keep going up. It takes them a fraction of the price to process it. For these amount of money premium should already be inlcluded. I refuse to pay p...

No $$$ mate...hehe....
paying extra for premium on top of 4k fee for ILR...no way....
prefer to wait 6 months....always done that for previous visas...

My understanding is that this going to the house of lords to be voted next week. Do we know if it will take effect at the begining of December? Surely it can't take effect mid-month. The reason i'm asking is that im applying for FLRM extension around 19th of December and i want to avoid paying the ...

So around 14 Dec...
I will be applying first week Dec, so very relieved that I don't have to pay £500 extra...
Thanks,

Thanks!
Do we know what date it takes effect from?

Hi srimurty, i am in same situation. My wife doesn't have birth certificate but I do. It seems we have no choice but to submit online only, as the paper one is for those who are applying for fee waiver. I have checked the paper form and it doesn't ask for birth certificate of parents. As per you, th...
