I'm curious as to why you had travel insurance for your elderly parents for their trip to Spain, but not for their trips to the UK? Is it because you don't care that the UK taxpayers will have to pay for medical treatment for your parents? Don't you think this is wrong? The NHS is a national healthc...

Goodness gracious! I have seen people suspended or placed on thin ice for saying less than 'silverkey'. Having been through the Home Office myself, I am happy to say that there are people of all races and creeds that work there, and it is highly against policy to discriminate on the bases that this ...

My understanding is that you cannot claim any of those. Normally you would had to have proven the following to be granted the visa: • the person you’ll be joining in the UK will be able to support, accommodate and care for you without claiming public funds for at least 5 years https://www.gov.uk/uk-...

I must say that I am really surprised at the number of people bringing elderly parents over for visits for months without taking out travel insurance. I see many people caught in this situation where they now rely on the NHS to deal with them. Two points. The first point is you’re putting these elde...

Good grief! This forum is invaluable to all of us seeking free accurate advice, and I feel obligated to defend this moderator. I really think that the two posters are out of order. This moderator will respond more than any other, 7 days a week, and most hours of the day. I think it would have benefi...

Imagine how British citizens feel that they cannot bring any family members here who are not spouse/partner or child. You wanted to come here, are lucky enough to have been given the opportunity.

Are any of these young adult children working in Belgium? If your Mother receives benefits for a disability in Belgium, why does she want to come to the UK? Where is the Father of the children?

Goodness! The people on this forum do not get paid. They are very helpful indeed when they have the answers. Your attitude is not conducive and certainly not a reason for forum members to give up their personal time to try and help you. I wish you luck in your endeavours.

So, your wife has been living in Pakistan, but returned to the UK in 2016 on a visit, and gave birth on the NHS?

I have read your post, and as an immigrant, I still have the opinion that because of people who do not follow the rules, regardless of reason, makes it more difficult for legitimate immigrants who do the right thing and follow the rules. That is my opinion. I will not comment further of either post,...

I find this very interesting. Having broken the immigration laws by being in the UK illegally for 10 years, you expect be given amnesty?

I’m sure your mother cannot just come here without exercising her treaty rights and claim benefits of any sort. She would have 3 months to prove that she has a job, started a business (self sufficient, etc). In that time she will have to support herself, or you will have to support her. If she does ...

Thank you.

I am totally disgusted at the comment made below. Can Moderators please address personal comments about the Prime Minister, or other people, be they in government, or not. It is a bad reflection on this forum if this type of behavior is tolerated - no matter what anyone's personal beliefs may be. Ed...

So, when do the colonies start taking responsibility for their present day actions? Remind me when the last colony became independent?

Yes, of course we are, but when something is totally ridiculous, are we not permitted to comment? It is taxpayers money after all, and I am a taxpayer, when someone who has no status (illegal) wants the British taxpayer to fund their education, you're saying I am not permitted to have an opinion? I'...

Seriously... you have no status, and you want free education?

Thank you, I'm happy to do that.

unfortunately, you don't tolerate any opinion that differs from your own, and you put people down in a bullying manner. Unless you own this website, other people have opinions too, and should be able to debate the topics with you. Yours is not the only opinion on the forum, and it would be better if...

I still think you should then stick to the topic to hand in this topic then.

One should be careful not to underestimate the British Government, especially the Tories. They had previously classified Nelson Madela as a Terrorist to further their interest, even though Mandela never lifted a Bullet at anyone. In the UK we have in our law books offense for glorification of terro...

My personal opinion, everyone entitled to one.

"you lot"?

I agree with you. I was very disappointed to read on this forum yesterday that one of the moderators used the "r" word against the people wanting to vote for Brexit. This is surely not acceptable on a forum like this where everyone should be entitled to voice their opinion without expectin...

And yes. Once you go black you never go back.
that's applying to many girls.

I am sorry, but that is such a dearly beloved comment. Quite frankly, if someone had made that statement about white men, they would have been called out.
