By the way, I hope dropping off the declaration form for referee to sign isn’t against the lockdown rule?

Re: Which Route to use - British spouse or ILR?

Steps to follow after completing the form online: Step 1: Pay and submit application via UKVI. Tip: Date of application is the date you pay and submit online, biometrics date is irrelevant. Step 2: After payment, you will reach “further actions page.” If you click on “book an appointment,” system w...

Re: Which Route to use - British spouse or ILR?

Self-submission is OPTIONAL. If you want to benefit from the new feature, you must upload and self-submit up to 48hrs before the appointment. If you do NOT want to self-submit, you can upload ANYTIME before the appointment date and submit at the appointment itself. Self-submission is recommended as...

Uploading document early?

Hi, here again - I have managed to make an appointment in a month’s time. I heard that if you upload the documents beforehand HO might get to look through them before the appointment, is that true? Many thanks!

Re: Which Route to use - British spouse or ILR?

The next question should ask how are you meeting the English Requirements where you will input degree. Ah OK. Thanks, I was just confused by the fine print of that question. The next question did ask to ask if I had a degree as proof of English and if choose no, asking if you have an English qualif...

Re: Which Route to use - British spouse or ILR?

1) “Yes” and select UK degree. 2) You can use any Home Office Case ID/UAN/BRP number. 3) Not an important question. I did not remember too but selected yes. I came in 2010 as a student. Had no issues. I think it is an “if known” question anyways. Even if not, does not matter. Thank you for your ans...

Hi I have few more questions when looking at the application form, if someone could give me some advice that would be very appreciated. 1. The question 'Did you meet the knowledge of English requirement as part of an indefinite leave application made on or after 28 October 2013?' - immediately I wou...

Re: Which Route to use - British spouse or ILR?

No I dont think so. I advised the other member to avoid it as a precautionary measure but you can go ahead. I think you will be okay. I do not have a first hand experience if that will cause any confusion or not. I just advise to use a different email to run dummy applications occasionally to be on...

1) Dates are “if known” question. You may provide estimates and clarify in the cover letter OR leave it empty. 2) Date of application is the date you pay and submit online. Biometrics date is irrelevant. Get referees sign anytime closer to date of application (ideally not more than 1 month old) OR ...

My wife is British and I applied via Section 6(1).

Re: Which Route to use - British spouse or ILR?

If you qualify on both Sections 6(1) and 6(2) of the BNA 1981, your choice. In my opinion, majority Section 6(2) applications are processed quicker (personal observation). You will need to submit marriage certificate and spouse British passport copy for this. Note: When you fill the online form and...
