Have you looked at Guide AN(NEW) - here , on the IND website? Page 30 (Documentary evidence) says Evidence of freedom from immigration time restrictions l The applicant’s passport showing permission to remain permanently in the UK OR l The Home Office letter by which the applicant was given permissi...
I don't know whether the evidence will be sufficient or not, Confused One, but I suspect that some clarification might help those who do know the answer.... I'm puzzled by your saying " I started working in June and have now just submitted my spouse Visa application.... " Do you mean that ...
I think you are missing an important point, miyoco. It is not the Home Office's responsibility to prove anything, in this context. It is for the applicant to satisfy the Home Office that the statements he/she makes in the application are true. If the Home Office have any doubts, they can refuse the ...
My guess - and it is only a guess - is that your application may be dealt with more swiftly if you were to supply all the evidence again. Then you would be able to use a Nationality Checking Service office (assuming you have one not too far away), and applications sent through NCS seem to be done mo...
Very sensible - and bearing in mind that there are passports of two different countries involved, try to get two copies of whatever paper the police give you as evidence of the report.... The UK Ppt Office will certainly want to see it, and I would expect the Indian HC will want to, as well...
....I sent all passports which shows all stamps , all the data is there really.... Yes - but, as your phone call today indicates, they haven't looked at them, except for just long enough to form a view that it is "complex"... ...By the way if your awaiting an appeal hearing from a refused...
Well said, Rogerio... Attack an argument, by all means, but don't attack or insult the person making the argument. Holding a particular view doesn't mean that a person is an Uncle Tom, a quisling, a net addict or anything else. Please step back from the line. [Added later] Oh, and Dawie - I've just ...
You first posted this question in May. Contrary to what you say, you received several responses, all suggesting that what you proposed did not sound like a good idea. No-one came forward to say that it sounded possible. It seems to me that if you had written to the American Embassy at the time, you ...
I'm not sure that there is anything more that you can do, at the moment. I don't think that Liam Byrne's letter is accusing you of being an overstayer or an illegal entrant. It says "Unfortunately more complex cases and those made by overstayers and illegal entrants are not straightforward...&q...
Why not just Google "Netherlands Embassy [name of capital city]"? I've just done that with a couple of random capital, and it took me straight to the official website. A click on the "Consular Affairs" button brought up comprehensive guidance for applying for a Schengen visit visa.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm........ Not sure really...... Happy to concede that, in the case of the UK-born child child with the Dutch mother, they do seem to have cocked it up - and the Home Office seem to have made the same mistake... But in the other two cases, the Passport Office has simply not issued passpor...
I don't pretend to be an expert in questions like this, countrylass, but I think the "human rights" reference you mention is a stock phrase that appears in many refusals. It is a fact that many people try to argue that a visa refusal is preventing a couple from living together, and is ther...
No - sorry... Having somewhere to stay is a requirement of most of the provisions of the Immigration Rules, but buying somewhere won't override the need to meet the other requirements. Have a look at http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk
The trouble is, popeye, that by bombarding the board with this stuff - and it does seem to be the same stuff, again and again - you're making it impossible to sort the wheat from the chaff. I was just hoping to find the answer to a question, a few minutes ago - see my post to "peppy" - but...
I don't do formulation... Kayalami put it brilliantly a few months ago, and I thought at the time "I wish I'd written that". I'm sure Dawie will remember it. Unfortunately, connection problems or server overload are preventing me from searching for the post in question - it has just taken ...
What a mess... The problem is that, in order to qualify for naturalisation as a British citizen, the spouse must (a) live in UK for three years and (b) be free of time limits on their stay on the day of application. (There are other requirements, but they needn't trouble us for this particular quest...
I don't think you're a little mad, Dawie.... Neither do I think that your interlocutors necessarily need the book. Interlocutors are just people with whom you communicate. I think you want people who disagree with you to read it. I happen to be one of them, and I deeply resent the implication in you...
FWIW, I share JAJ's doubts that you were ever entitled to be registered as a British citizen. The British Nationality Acts have, since 1948, contained provision whereby minor children could be registered as British, at the discretion of the Home Secretary, but the Home Office have always had reasona...
I'm not sure what you mean, exactly... Virtually everyone born in Jamaica before independence in 1962 was British - just by being born in a British colony. Most people lost British nationality automatically at independence, and became citizens of Jamaica. This applied even to those who were living i...
