I was applying for my visa or ILE before this specific visa went away on April 2 2007. She said at the LA Consulate she has no information that this is going away at all and anyway I had applied to early, as I am not leaving until next year. She said that you cannot apply until three months before y...
Have a look at this document , which is part of the instructions given to staff dealing with visa applications, and in particular read 26.5. In terms of UK legislation, the conviction is most certain "spent". Thanks, but on the application do I say No criminal convictions or yes and give ...
I would like to see a sample of a letter of support if anyone has one. According to the visa app it says if you are staying with family or friends until you find suitable accomodation you need a letter from them stating that fact. Does anybody have an expample of what it should say?
My husband and I are moving back to the UK next year. I am american and he is british. We have been married over 20 years.

Hi my husband and I have been married for 23 years I am american and we live in the states. We are considering moving back to England in the next two years. Can I apply for an UK passport just based on the fact that I have been married to a Brit for so long? Or before moving would I have to do a sp...
You need to live in the UK for three years before applying for naturalisation, I'm afraid... For the time being, if you apply for a spouse visa for the UK, you should immediately be granted "indefinite leave to enter" (ILE) - ie settlement with no restrictions - because you have been marr...

I want to apply for a settlement visa for myself as I am married to a Brit. We have been married for over 20 years and live in the US. Do I have to have a trip planned to the UK for this or can I just apply and then once I get it just have it for the next time I return to the UK?
Are you sure about that? I thought as a spouse of a EU national I would be ok without a visa, that seems a bit strange. So if we have kids than I and the kids would have to get a visa and my husband not? Not really treating you as a family then are they? I wil have to look at this further.
Ok If I understand this right, if you are an EU citizen you can overstay the 90 day Schengan limit in Schengan countries? If you want to stay longer somewhere you can go to the embassy or whatever and say I want to stay longer in your country and as a spouse of an EU citizen even though I am America...
My wife and I are planning on spending over the 90 day limit in Greece. Do we have to apply for a long stay visa for Greece before we leave the states? Also when we leave Greece can we then travel around the other Schengan countries for 90 days or have we used that up by staying in Greece?
My husband is a UK citizen and I am american we have been living in the states for the last 20 years but are considering a move back to the UK. Do I need to apply for a work permit before we go? Or as the wife of a UK Citizen can I just apply for it once I get there? But of course I will be arriving...
