Thanks Ticktack for your feedback. I understand the rules and I would very much like to obey them. On the other hand, for a practical situation of citizenship application, which probably many applicants would encounter . when applying for it it is uncertain how long it will take for the approval. . ...
Thanks alterhase58 for your feedback. If we travelled out of the UK and then return, we used to use the BRP for identification verification when re-enter. In this situation (children registered as British citizens where BRP became redundant), and before obtainin the British passport, is there any do...
Dear all, I would like to clarify about the ILR status after the granting of citizenship. Understand the ILR status (and the BRP) will become invalid after attending the citizenship ceremony. One cannot travel then, until getting a British passport. In other words, the ceremony is the timeline to ob...
Thanks CR001. Hi all, About the question in application: Have you had any other work over the past 10 years or since you came to the UK? I came to the UK in 2016. Would that mean I need to only provide employment history in the UK since 2016? Is there any need to provide employment history before co...

Hi AmazonianX, thanks for your response. I see your point. Indeed when I look into both the application forms of ILR and citizenship, there was not any question on liquidation. There was question about bankruptcy but company liquidation is not bankruptcy. There was a question "Have you ever eng...
Thanks AmazonianX. It is quite certain that if one had a history as director in a company going into liquidation, it is advisable to declare it in the citizenship application. May I bring a question for curiousity? For an applicant in the same situation but applying ILR, would the application requir...
I am studying to prepare for the application. Just locate another thread in the forum talking about good character requirements, where there are different considerations for ILR and citizenship. https://www.immigrationboards.com/indefinite-leave-to-remain/single-justice-procedure-notice-and-how-it-a...
Thanks alterhase58 for the reply. I have got another question in my mind. The ILR application and company liquidation happened on timelines close to each other (in last year ILR application applied in early Mar, granted in late Apr, company liquidation happened in Apr around same time when the ILR w...
Dear all, Re the previous post, grateful for any advice. In short, my query is about application input related to history being a director of a limited company going liquidation. The online application form seems not having question in this area, but the guideline around Good Character does mention ...
Dear all, I got ILR in last year and plan to apply for citizenship. I am filling in the online application, also checking the advice in this forum. There is a question "Have you ever been declared bankrupt?". To me it is "No". On the other hand, I was a director of a limited comp...
Dear all, I am glad to advise you that, I had my ILR submitted in Mar and I got the approval. The rough time line is:- Application submission: early Mar Appointment at visa centre: late Mar Receive approval Email from Home Office: mid Apr (within 4 weeks after visiting the visa entre) My sincere tha...
Dear Zimba, Thanks for the reply. So I take that if the application was made within 14 days following the refusal, the staying period can be treated as continue. May I check in such case, would the following still be eligible for the applicant and dependents: free NHS right of work state school educ...
I think you can use the BRP (Biometric Residence Permit) for the test. https://www.gov.uk/life-in-the-uk-test Dear Lema, glad to hear that you have obtained your ILR couple of days ago. My application is under pending (FLR FP). I have completed 10 years on 12 March. but have not done Life in the UK ...
Zimba thanks for your update. Yes I should wait for response on the ILR application. If the ILR was refused and it was after the visa expiry date already, it could still apply for another BNO visa within 14 days. The new visa, if approved, would allow settlement on 5-year stay. I would like to doubl...
Zimba, thanks for your reply. Now I am on T1E visa to be expired in Jul2021. I have applied for ILR. I hope it will go ok. At the same time I am looking at what I should do, if unfortunately the ILR application got any problem. I am eligible to apply for another visa to stay in the UK (in my case it...
I refer to my previous post a few years ago. As it was locked already I am creating this new post for a follow up question. https://www.immigrationboards.com/uk-tier-1-entrepreneur-visas/t1e-visa-extension-t260815.html#p1666456 In that post I asked, in case of visa renewal refusal, the applicant's s...
Dear all, I am preparing for the ILR application. When looking at my day of absence, I recall something related to the Police Registration Certificate. The certificate stated temporary absence from registered address for 2 months have to be reported. We arrived in Mar2016 to pick up the BRP on first...
About application of ILR settlement, there is requirement of maximum absence from UK. According to guidance: You cannot have had more than 180 days’ absence from the United Kingdom during any consecutive 12 months of the qualifying period. You will need to list details of your absences from the Unit...
Thanks Zimba for your advice. I refer to the policy guidance, about Job creation: specified documents (quoted below). The letter needs to be dated but the guidance does not specify whether it needs to be within a certain period of submission. (g) If you took over or joined a business, you must provi...
