However i am not sure if my partner can apply for it with me together? He came into UK on March 2006 with dependant visa and granted ILR with me together in November 2010. Given the timeline, your partner may be eligible to apply for naturalisation at the same time as you. Thanks Sushdmehta, I like...

I will apply for naturalisation based on 5yr WP + 12mths ILR very soon. However i am not sure if my partner can apply for it with me together? He came into UK on March 2006 with dependant visa and granted ILR with me together in November 2010. What kind of criteria will he fall into if he would like...

I got my WP dec 2006, but can't remember what's the requirement at the time, now that according to http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/newsfragments/35-t1-t2-annual-limits , I'll need to meet the salary requirement at the time of my application to get my ILR a year from now. Thanks I don'...

However, the notice is really short and seemed even rush people into this!! Fairness???C'mon!!!Making more money out of this? Well, that cer...

New immigration application fees from 22 November 2010 Fees table - UK Border Agency fees from 22 November 2010 Nope!!! I am going to PEO on 25th Nov and actually ready for it! I have everything in file and all photocopies done. Does this mean i have to pay the higher fee and also use the new form?...

Moreover when I spoke to UKBA customer service, they told me that if I want to use the on-line service then the preferable time would be mid of December 2010 for Feb 2011. That is absolutely correct!!! If you would like to book for Feb, you have to wait until Dec. The system is just like that cos n...

You can have them to be on the safe side, but there is nowhere says they are required. Good luck!!：）

Unless applying for settlement under Tier 2 / WP immigration category, a letter from employer - stating that the applicant is required for employment in the foreseeable future - is not a mandatory requirement. Good if you can arrange it but if you don't it will not lead to refusal of a settlement a...

claud : i rang today about the form etc and i like you look every morning and night to see if anything changes! i was told today that we have twenty one days to use the old form after a new form is issued. she said we have 21 grace days. thus even if it changes tomorrow im still going to use the 07...

I think this is crazy. I keep checking UKBA website everyday morning and evening in order to keep myself updated to the latest application form as well as the fees. My appointment is coming at the end of Nov and wonder what HO is thinking? I have all documents ready for interview because I don't lik...

If people pay now on line, does it mean the application submitted earlier than 28 days? The date of payment for an in-country application is not the date of application. And UKBA has not published anything to suggest so prior to / after launching the online payment service. Well lets put it this wa...

Do they really expect people to fill it out on the morning? Well no, I don't think they do. They hope people will fill in the form online, and pay online, and anyone doing that today will, it seems, pay at the old rate. There are people out there booked appointments in Nov but not sure if they can ...

My story is I married my Israeli husband, he got a spouse visa Entry Clearance and on Thursday 4th November we will be applying in Sheffield PEO with our Set M form and (lots, probably too many!) documents. I have rung today (...
