I agree but what about the second sentence "- You take with you your British citizenship certificate and present it to the border force officer and explain that you are British". If one has a foreign passport with a visa, they would not need the citizenship certificate anyway to enter the ...
Does this mean that if I am holding a foreign passport and citizenship certificate I can travel back to the UK from overseas (Asia)? I have got an invitation to the citizenship ceremony but do not have enough time to get UK Passport before my next travel for work. If I attend before I travel, this m...
As per my understanding, one cannot enter the UK using BRP or a certificate of British citizenship. Please see https://www.gov.uk/apply-citizenship-in ... ertificate. The only options are a Passport or the Right to Abode.
Good news that AR has been successful! The case has been sent back to the original case working team. It says that there was an error because the case working team failed to ask for additional evidence.

Thank you so much @Vinny for such a detailed response. Yes, she applied for all extensions in time and there were no absences that would break the continuous residency. In fact, all absences are way less than 180 days limit. When she applied for ILR, choose the "Tier 1 or Appendix W dependents&...
Thank you @secret.simon and @CR001 She was still on Tier 1 dependent visa when applied for ILR, and PBS visa until July 2021. Their understanding, including from this forum, was that as she has nearly seven years of continuous residence as PBS dependent so should get her ILR. Could this be a procedu...
Dear IB team (including @Cullinan and @Zimba), As per the thread above, my friend's wife applied for ILR and was unfortunately refused today, please see the reasons below. Can you please review and provide guidance on the next steps? "You originally entered the UK as a Tier 2 Partner alongside ...
Thank you @Zimba. So it does not make a difference if she was on Tier 4 for a while? Because this switch had broken continuous residency for my friend and he had to complete three years and apply under the accelerated route.
