I am personally doubtful that the Malaysian embassy will renew your passport. It will be in a mess if the UK immigration find out later that the embassy will actually renew your passport if you overstayed in UK. Imagine the credibility of the embassy if this were to happen. I am not sure that this ...

How do I clear my overstayer status? How can I convince them that I am sure to return after my visit? Thanks You might do better to start a new thread, since this one started out as a question from someone with a BNO passport who wants to re-enter the UK from Ireland - nothing to do with overstayin...
what is a bno passport? BNO = British National (Overseas), referring to people who possess a category of British nationality on the basis being formerly British Dependent Territories Citizens with a connection with Hong Kong. BNOs are not British citizens and the status does not confer the right of...
The Republic of Ireland and the UK, together with the other British Isles such as the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man, form a 'Common Travel Area'. This means that there are no routine immigration controls for people travelling within this area in the way that there normally are for internationa...
I'm sure it's right that it won't be a problem. But if it's going to worry you, could you defer your application for a week or two until she starts her new job?
Travelodge is only a suggestion. There are other hotel chains operating in the UK. But being a well-known chain, they are clean and safe (albeit a bit unimaginative), and they take on-line bookings. And even if you make a flexible booking now - which I would also recommend - there's nothing to stop...
hi there, can someone who has left the UK recently to ireland, enter the UK again with a BNO passport :?: . thank you. :wink: There is no formal immigration control between the UK and Ireland, so your passport will probably not be checked. When did you leave the UK to go to Ireland? Are you still w...

Yes you are right it is not compulsary to have a passport but for some basic services, the best form of ID is your passport if you do not have a driving licence. Thanks. That's true, but the point is that t...
I think it depends on the circumstances. I certainly think, for example, that it is reasonable to provide, in a covering letter, a list of all the documents that you have provided if that is not clear from the form itself - e.g.: - current passport of M (valid to Y) with residence permit; - expired ...
Although ... it isn't actually compulsory to have a valid passport, is it? My passport went missing just after i got the ILR in 2003 and i have not travelled out of the country since. I have just got a neww passport and i sent it in for the ILR to be stamped on it . If you noticed your passport was ...
everyone who came to the UK and work here, with or without working permit, has the same purpose. we are all hoping for a better future. hoping that we could earn more money. is that wrong, just because we dun have a working permit?? Well, it is wrong in the sense that it is breaking the law. And wh...
But do bear in mind that, even within the Schengen area: (a) if you are flying (whether domestically or internationally), the airline might want to see photo identification when you check in - obviously your passport will be the best form of ID here; and (b) many countries in Europe require you eith...
To conclude the original point of the thread can some knowledgable person confirm that: If this is an ILE (or ILR) Visa (which I am assured it is) then ILR is granted on application for a settlement visa to married couples who have been together outside the UK for more than 4 years. Normally yes. S...
I just found this pic... http://www.ind.homeoffice.gov.uk/6353/18383/18469/residencepermitile.jpg It doesnt look like that. The visa in that picture was issued in the UK (so gives indefinite leave to remain, and there is no time limit on the holder's first entry to the UK since the holder - our goo...
Hi Im eligible to apply for naturalization on 12th October after 4 years WP and 1 year ILR and I satisfy all their other criteria. My plan is to leave the country a few days after my application goes in and return to UK in about 6 months time to go through the ceremony and passport application (if ...

out of curiosity, can an EU passport holder apply for a first time drivers license in ANY EU country? for example, if i hold a UK passport, that lets me live in any EU country and be able to work there as long as i want. but does that also mean i can apply for a drivers license lets say in spain or...
Hey guys, My American wife will shortly be arriving in the UK. She will have a marriage visa that entitles her to live and work here - but will she eligible for NHS, or will she have to pay for healthcare under a private insurance scheme? Please let me know. Yes, she will be eligible for treatment ...
For example, dependent children of a person who is naturalising as a British citizen are entitled to be registered as British citizens at the same time - the difference being that the criteria are less onerous and it is not generally in the power of the Home Secretary to deny the registration - in ...
Just to clarify a bit further: naturalisation is the usual process by which people who are not British citizens can become British citizens (generally on the basis of having lived in the UK for the prescribed period of time plus or minus being married to a British citizen, as well as fulfilling cert...
do you think ill be ok if i send my expired uk passport along with a birth certificate BUT leave section about the registered birth empty? I don't think you need to send the birth certificate. Point 12 in the notes that accompany the application form (see http://www.britainusa.com/consular/c1notes0...
As an Australian citizen, she is unlikely to have any significant difficulty at passport control. She will need her address in the UK (presumably your address) to put on the landing card, which she will have to fill in. Questioning by the immigration officer will probably be pretty routine (What is ...
I'm glad you all arrived back without any additional problems on entering the UK. It has all, no doubt, been something you wouldn't want to repeat, but it has turned out all right in the end. Well done, and all the best!
